Payments from the US can be made by the following options:
CIBC International Student Pay
A new secure online portal for International Students to make arrangement for payments to ¿´Æ¬ÊÓƵ University in the student’s local currency. The quote and payment instructions the student receives are good for 72 hours (excluding weekends).
Benefits of the Program include:
• Enhanced Student Experience: Easily make a tuition payment in your preferred currency.
• Access to Live Foreign Exchange Rates: With CIBC International Student Pay you’ll have access to the competitive foreign exchange rates CIBC is providing to ¿´Æ¬ÊÓƵ
• End-to-End Communication: You’ll receive detailed instructions and a reference code to deliver to your local bank within 72 hours (excluding weekends). Your bank simply follows the instructions and sends the funds to your school.
• Option to pay in Canadian Dollars (CAD): If you choose not to take advantage of preferred exchange rates and decide to pay in CAD, you will be charged a 1.25% non-refundable administrative fee. This is charged by CIBC and is in addition to the payment submitted to ¿´Æ¬ÊÓƵ.
There are no transaction charges from CIBC or from ¿´Æ¬ÊÓƵ, unless you pay in CAD. For more information on the program please review this document: CIBC International Student Pay

Qualified Tuition Plans (529 Plan)
¿´Æ¬ÊÓƵ is an eligible institution for you to use money from a 529 plan. You will need to contact your plan provider. They will either pay ¿´Æ¬ÊÓƵ directly, or pay you, and you can issue a payment to ¿´Æ¬ÊÓƵ. If they are paying ¿´Æ¬ÊÓƵ directly they will usually send a cheque in USD. It is very important that you ask your plan provider to include the student’s full name and ID on the cheque, as we frequently receive 529 plan cheques with no identifying information.
The cheque can be mailed to:
¿´Æ¬ÊÓƵ University — Student Accounts Office
3415 McTavish Street
Montréal, Québec
H3A 0C8
Canada
Once received, the payment will be converted to Canadian dollars, and applied to the student’s fee account.
 Cheque
We recommend that you use one of the electronic methods of payment. If this is not possible, we do accept cheques in Canadian and US dollars. The University is not responsible for mail service delivery. Postmarks on envelopes are not viewed as the received date. If a payment is received past the fee deadline indicated on your e-bill, interest and/or a Late Payment Fee will be assessed. The cheque can be mailed, along with a copy of your e-bill, to:
¿´Æ¬ÊÓƵ University — Student Accounts Office
Room MS-55
3415 McTavish Street
Montréal, Québec H3A 0C8
Cheques, money orders or bank drafts should be made payable to "¿´Æ¬ÊÓƵ University" in Canadian funds. To ensure that your account is correctly credited, you must print your family name and ¿´Æ¬ÊÓƵ ID number on the front of the cheque or money order. If the cheque is in USD, it will be converted to Canadian dollars on the day we receive the cheque.
