I am an international student who is starting post-secondary studies this September at St. Clair College @ Acumen. Due to COVID-19, I have received preliminary approval (ie. Stage 1 Approval) from IRCC (Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada) to begin on-line studies from my home country. What happens if I do not receive my Canadian Study Visa to travel to Canada (ie. Stage 2 Approval) after I have already commenced by studies?
In the event you do not receive Stage 2 Approval and your Canadian Study Permit is declined, St. Clair College @ Acumen is willing to refund or defer your full tuition payment, less the $125 application fee already paid.
I am an international student who is starting post-secondary studies this September at St. Clair College @ Acumen. Due to COVID-19, I have received preliminary approval (ie. Stage 1 Approval) from IRCC (Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada) to begin on-line studies from my home country. As part of my required tuition fees, I have paid for health insurance that provides health coverage during the academic year. As I am in my home country, am I able to have the health insurance fee deducted from my account?
As an international student studying from your home country, you are eligible for a reduction to your health insurance fees until such time you arrive in Canada to begin your studies.
Health Insurance Fees are posted as follows:
- September to August (September Intake) = $745.00
- January to August = (January Intake) $535.00
- May to August (May Intake) = $335.00
As an international student beginning their studies in September from their home country and has received Stage 1 approval, you are eligible for a reduction in fees from $745.00 to $535.00, a difference of $210.00. The fee will be reduced to $535.00 to coincide with your anticipated planned studies in Canada beginning in January 2021. The $210.00 may be refunded to you upon request.
