1- the message above your ask box says uncol instead of uncool, jsyk!! 2 – i added 4 courses originally and then after i paid the minimum payment, i ended up adding more courses. do i have to pay more on top of the minimum payment now? or am i good until i have to pay the rest in november, or whatever? does the minimum payment change?

hey there,
thank you! darn those typos. they’ll be the edn of me.
no, the minimum payment does not change – if you paid to register by the deadline, you are going to stay registered. registration doesn’t retroactively go back and un-register people, so that’s good news.
however, your total fees may change. because you said ‘courses’ instead of ‘credits,’ (always use credits! no one counts in courses), i don’t know if the number of courses you added tipped you from part-time to full time.
full time students (3.0 credits +) have a different fee from part-time students. part-timers are assessed on a per course basis (so a student with 0.5 credits pays less than a student taking 1.0 credits), while full-time students pay a program fee. depending on your credit count now, you could be in either one of those camps.
also, some programs work differently than others in terms of fees (commerce, bioinformatics and comp. sci. are the main culprits at st. george). you can take a look at the part-time and full-time fees for your program/faculty here.
you can also read more about that november 15th deadline you mentioned (which is the day that service charges start to apply on any fees you haven’t paid yet), and lots more helpful info about fee deadlines, here.
(i know it can seem a tad overwhelming when you first look at it, but that link is actually super helpful.)
finally, it’s always a good idea to keep your eye on your account invoice on ROSI. if you ever see something that makes you go “what???”, you can read up and ask questions so you’re aware of what’s going on. and if any of the changes i mentioned do happen, they’ll show up on there.
cheers,
aska
