Tuition Fees
University of Victoria
PO Box 3040 STN CSC
Victoria BC V8W 3N7
Please ensure that the forms are sent before the following tuition deadlines:
- September 30 (fall session)
- January 31 (winter session)
- May 31 (summer session)
Once UVic has received the authorization form, students will be assigned a vendor number, which should be included on all payments and correspondence with the university.
All bills will be in Canadian funds ($CDN). Payments received in $US funds will be converted at the rate in effect on the day of receipt.
If payment isn’t received, a notice of non-payment will be sent to the student and a hold placed on their record that prevents transcript release and registration. After 90 days of non-payment, your contract may be cancelled at the university’s discretion and the student will be billed for any unpaid amounts.
If at any time we are notified that a payment will not be paid a portion of a bill, the student will be charged and a hold placed immediately on their record.
Pay your fees on time:
- make sure that an authorization form is received before your first fee deadline.
- don’t delay paying your fees in anticipation of a third party sponsorship. Any late payment fees which accrue prior to the authorization of a contract will not be cancelled.
- make sure you maintain a current email address through Online tools to ensure you receive bills in a timely manner.
If you have prepaid your account and the sponsor payment results in a credit balance, then you can request a refund from Tuition Services.

Health & dental
Students with a status card can permanently opt out of the extended health and dental charges by taking their status card to the Undergraduate Admissions and Records office (Undergraduate Students) or the Graduate Admissions and Records office (Graduate Students).
The deadline to opt out of the extended health and dental charges is September 30 for the fall term and January 31 for the winter term. Most sponsored students are required, by their sponsor, to opt out of the health and dental fees. Students who do not opt out will be responsible for paying these fees.
Students who already have extended health and dental coverage, but do not have a status card, can opt out of the health and dental fees online through the website.
The opt out period is August 22 to September 22 for the fall term and December 22 to January 22 for the winter term. Students who opt out through the website are required to opt out annually.
