Information on Co-op Fees for new Students

For students in Co-op programs, a co-op fee is payable in addition to tuition and incidental fees. The co-op fee relates to costs associated with the administration of work placements and is calculated in accordance with Ministry of Education and University of Toronto policies. The costs recovered through the fee are

  • Salaries and benefits of that portion of each professional and administrative staff position directly related to the provision of placement services and work-term activity (includes obtaining job postings, preparation of students for the work term experience, monitoring work term activity, and debriefing students and employers following the work term)
  • Non-salary expenditures attributable to the provision of placement services and work-term activities including travel, telephone, mailing/postage, printing, photocopying, publicity, computing, equipment and furnishing, supplies and expenses, and external meetings
  • Maintenance costs, including costs of utilities, custodial service and security of the space used for administrative and professional placement staff and interviewing or meeting rooms used in the placement function

Regardless of whether they enter the program in the first or second year of university study, all students in a Co-op Program are eligible to complete the maximum number of work terms as required by their program. The co-op fee schedule ensures that the total amount of co-op fees payable is fairly assessed regardless of the year of entry, and that students will generally not be assessed co-op fees in the final year of their program, after their work terms have been completed.

Schedule for Fees Assessment

The payment of the co-op fee is spread over a number of sessions (fall, winter, summer). The number of sessions and the level of the fee depend on the year of entry to the program.

For students admitted to a co-op program in Year 1, the co-op fee is payable in each of the first eight sessions (Fall, Winter, or Summer) in which the student either enrolls in any number of courses or is on a work term placement, after which no further co-op fees will be payable.

For students admitted to a co-op program in Year 2, the co-op fee is levied at a somewhat higher level, but is payable in each of the first six sessions (Fall, Winter, Summer) in which the student either enrolls in any number of courses or is on a work term placement, after which no further co-op fees will be payable.

Fees Payment

As in the case of tuition fees, co-op fees are posted to the student’s account on ROSI. The co-op fees for the Fall and Winter sessions will be posted in the Fall; students must make a minimum payment to register, then may pay the balance of their account in monthly nstallments. Accounts should be paid in full by the end of the Winter session; in the event of an outstanding balance at the end of the session, students will not be permitted further registration, nor have transcripts issued. For the summer session, the co-op fees are payable in full at registration. For more details on payment of your account, see the Student Account Information Booklet provided with your registration material.

Please note that all co-op students are charged co-op fees at the beginning of each registration period. If students do not register in courses or are not on a work term, the fees are reversed at the end of the course enrollment period in mid-May, mid-September and mid-January.

Refund Policy

If a student withdraws during the session from all of the courses in which he/she is registered, the refund schedule for incidental fees will apply to the co-op fee. If a student leaves the program for any reason, co-op fees paid in earlier sessions are not refundable.

Co-op Fee

The per session fees for all programs leading to the BBA degree are:

$ 404.00 for students entering the program in Year 1 (8 payments)
$ 533.00 for students entering the program in Year 2 (6 payments)
