Exception for full-time students with unavailable required courses

If a student is unable to get a required course during the year due to elements beyond their control (i.e., all sections are full, not offered this year, unavoidable conflict, etc.) they may, with written permission of both their advising Department Head/Director (first) AND the Director of Open Acadia, request registration in an undergraduate online continuous-intake course as part of their full-time tuition fee. This request must be completed on or before the last day to add/change each term, Registrations processed after these dates will be subject to per-course tuition fee charges.

This is only for full-time students and will not be considered for overload situations. Requests for electives may also be considered if there is a compelling case made by the Department Head/Director. Permission will only be given in cases where no viable regular term option is available.

For more information, please visit the Office of Student Accounts.

You must complete your open-entry online courses by September 1 if you are returning to full-time studies, or the amount of your loan for fall-winter may be affected. For more information about Canada Student Loans, please visit our Government Loans Financial Aid Page.

The Tuition and Education Credit Certificate, Income Tax T-2202A form, is available from myAcadia. Login to your Self-Service account and then select the Tax Form (T2202A) option from My Account on the main menu. The Education Tax Credit applies only to courses completed within a four-month term. Open entry online courses do not qualify unless completed within the four-month fall, winter or intersession terms.

If the credit card is not in your name, written permission from the card owner is required. You are responsible for any fees associated with an NSF cheque or a declined credit card.

If you are paying by student loan, the loan application must accompany your registration form. Your registration cannot be processed without this application unless arrangements have been made with Acadia's Student Accounts Office. This can be done by calling 902-585-1297.
