requests for pro-rated tuition charges cannot be granted.

A 3% per month interest fee is charged on overdue accounts, and a $25 charge for each dishonoured
cheque will be applied on tuitions not paid on time.

spreading the cost of tuition fees over a period of 9 months. Please contact the school’s Financial
Controller if you wish to learn more about this option.
