Fees & Policies

There are several policies and fees that students should familiarize themselves with before they consider the co-op program. We have summarized them below:

Program Fees

While on Co-ops, students do not pay tuition fees.

Students who secure a co-op pay $500 for each 4-month work term.

Payment of fees is the sole responsibility of the student, not the employer.

Co-op fees are non-refundable.

Additional Courses/Credits

Students working in a co-op may enroll as part-time students while completing their work terms. Enrollment will be limited to a 1/2 course [0.5 credits] per academic term. This rate is limited because the co-op is the priority for the duration of the work term. Furthermore, such part-time course requirements must not interfere with work hours. It is the responsibility of the student to be aware of the estimated workload for a given course, particularly during Intersession and Summer terms, and it is the responsibility of the student to drop the course if the workload becomes too great, in accordance with all deadlines stipulated in the Academic Calendar. Please note that all students on co-op must return to complete at least 2.0 credits at 澳门六合彩开奖预测 after the co-op, continuing their undergraduate degree.
