4.1 CHANGES TO TUITION AND FEE RATES

Changes to tuition and fee rates are normally implemented for Fall semester, but the Board of Governors reserves the right to change any rates without prior notice.

4.2 DIFFERENTIAL TUITION RATE FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS

Students who attend the University of Regina on a visitor’s visa or study permit pay 2.6 times the domestic rate of tuition (i.e., in 2009-2010, $364.00 per credit hour instead of $140.00 per credit hour). Undergraduate Visa students also pay an International Services Fee of $17.85 per credit hour. Other fees are the same as for Canadian students.

Students who attend the University of Regina on a diplomatic or work visa or minister’s permit pay the domestic rate of tuition.

A change in immigration status must be reported to Admissions in the Registrar’s Office. Students who are living in Canada as authorized workers or as part of a family unit dependent on an authorized worker, and who have applied for permanent resident status, may be charged fees at the domestic student rate. Students apply for this exemption at the International Student Success Office, and must provide the originals of all supporting documentation, which will be returned to them after a copy has been made.

Any change in tuition rate that results from a change of immigration status, or from an exemption as described in the previous paragraph, takes effect in the next semester starting after the effective date of the change of status or approval of the exemption.

4.3 SENIOR CITIZENS' TUITION WAIVER

Students who are 65 or older as of the last day of the semester in which they are enrolled are entitled to have their tuition waived, but will be assessed all other course and semester-based fees (see §4.5). Students need to ask the Registrar’s Office to apply the waiver.

4.4 STATEMENTS OF ACCOUNT

Students may check through UR Self-Service at www.uregina.ca for a detailed analysis of fees owing to the University. Fall fees are normally posted by late June; Winter and Spring-Summer fees are normally posted as soon as students register.
