This schedule of fees applies to Canadian citizens and Permanent Residents enrolled in programs funded by the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care (MOHLTC) at The Michener Institute of Education’s School of Applied Health Sciences (“Michener”).
Michener reviews its fees and services annually and makes the appropriate adjustments for the upcoming academic year which runs from September until August.
Fee Payment Deadlines
Tuition and ancillary fees are due on the following deadlines.
- 2020* Fall Tuition Fee Deadline – August 8, 2020 (September 4, 2020 for OSAP students*)
- 2021* Winter Tuition Fee Deadline – December 5, 2020 (January 8, 2021 for OSAP students*)
- 2021 Summer Term – April 5, 2021
*Students who have been approved for Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP) funding will have their tuition and fees automatically redirected to Michener. In the event that OSAP funding does not cover the total tuition and fees, students must pay that balance by the OSAP fee payment deadlines. Late or non-payment of any portion of fees will affect a student’s registration in the program and a $150.00 Late Payment Fee will be assessed.
Tuition Deposit – New Students
New students accepted into programs will be required to pay a non-refundable tuition deposit of $500.00 which will be applied to their first semester tuition. Deposit deadlines will be included in the Offer of Admission. Failure to pay by the deadline will result in seat offers being revoked.
Fees Invoice
Upon acceptance into a program and payment of fee deposit as specified on an Admission offer, students will be advised of the fees due for the upcoming academic year (viewable on Self-Service) along with payment options and payment due dates.

Student Bursary Levy
Through a referendum, Michener students ratified that all full and part-time students in base-funded programs will pay a $10 per academic year Student Bursary Levy which is collected with tuition as part of the Ancillary Fees. Students may choose to opt out by notifying the Registrar in writing. This opt-out would then be for the academic year (opt-outs must occur each year of study) and they would not be eligible for consideration to apply for the Michener Student Council Awards or the General Bursary.
Please note, that under any agreement if The Michener Institute is prevented, delayed or interrupted in performing its obligations due to any occurrence beyond its control, such as, but not limited to, labour disruptions (including strikes, walkouts, and lockouts), wars or acts of governments or government agencies or other authorities having jurisdiction, then such prevention, delay or interruption shall not be construed to be a default under any agreement entered into.
