    Application & Registration

    In consideration of your busy schedules, we have developed procedures to enable you to complete your application and registration quickly and simply, by mail. You can now pay by Mastercard, Visa, certified cheque, money order or in person by debit card.

     

    1. Applicants should carefully complete the application form and submit it with the required tuition fee and supporting documentation to the Registrar's Office no later than Friday, September 8, 2000 at 6 p.m. Certified cheque, money order, completed credit card information or by debit card in person are acceptable forms of payment.

       

    2. The Registrar's Office receives and processes applications on a rolling, first come, first served basis. Applications received without the required tuition fee payment or complete credit card information will be returned to applicants. Missing information may delay processing of applications. The Registrar's Office notifies applicants of their status: "Accepted and Registered"; "Accepted on Condition and Registered"; or "Refused". Allow 3 to 4 weeks for processing of your application.

       

    3. Applicants who have been "Accepted and Registered" will be sent, with their official letter of acceptance, the following items for their convenience:
      • fees refund schedule
      • course change/withdrawal form
      • course information

       

    4. Applicants who have been "Accepted on Condition and Registered" will be sent, with their letter of conditional acceptance, the following items for their convenience:
      • deadline for submission of outstanding documentation
      • fees refund schedule
      • course change/withdrawal form
      • course information

      NOTE: Conditional applicants will receive an official letter of clear acceptance and registration when all conditions have been met.


  • Please ensure that your application is complete, and that all required documents are attached. Failure to do so will delay your acceptance and will delay the process for everyone. Our goal is for you to receive your acceptance and relevant information prior to the first day of classes. We look forward to your participation in our Additional Qualification courses!
