Telebanking and Internet banking is currently set up with Scotiabank, Toronto Dominion, CIBC, BMO and Royal Bank, if a student subscribes to their directed payment program. The student's Banner/Student ID is the customer number, and Dalhousie is the payee. (NOTE: King's and Dalhousie do not accept Interac E-Mail money transfers).

Senior Citizens

Those who are Canadian citizens or permanent residents, 65 years of age or over at the time of registration and are enrolled in an undergraduate non-professional degree program may be eligible for a senior citizen waiver. This waives only the tuition portion of the fees, the student must pay the incidental fees. The student must notify the Student Accounts Office to have the waiver initiated on or before the term due date.

 

Refunds/Withdrawals:

Course Withdrawal:  Students are encouraged to refer to Dalhousie University's current Refund Schedule before dropping an arts or science course. 

Account Credits: An account credit will be refunded to the student by request only to the King's Student Accounts Office, either in person or from the student's official university email address.  Refunds for account credits are processed once every two weeks.

Withdrawals: A credit of fees will be granted upon receipt of written withdrawal notification being submitted to the Registrar's Office.  Once approval is met, the calculation of the credit is based on the date of the withdrawal notification and the current term schedule. Journalism is a Specified Limited Enrolment Programme, therefore all students attending the School of Journalism will not receive a credit of tuition fees after the second day of classes. Exceptions may be made on compassionate grounds.

Students in residence are expected to remain in residence for the whole of the academic year. A student who withdraws from residence during the academic year will still be responsible for the balance of the residence fees, unless an acceptable replacement is found. Students who receive a tuition credit based on compassionate grounds may be released from their obligation for residence fees for the remainder of term, at the discretion of the Dean of Residence.
