Hello!
I am currently a part-time student at UofT. Unfortunately my mind isn’t concentrated on school at all and it has been reflected in my marks. I’ve been thinking about dropping out for some time off. If I were to drop my courses for the winter semester, would I get a complete 100% refund? I know there are incidental/campus fees on top of tuition fees that don’t amount to much, but I was wondering if those charges would be dropped as well if I dropped my courses on Rosi. (Is that how I’d go about this? Just dropping my courses on Rosi? I should probably speak to my registrar right?).
Thanks for your help! I appreciate your help.

hey there,
questions about refunds and things are HIGHLY SPECIFIC and vary based on the case, so before i say anything, here’s my offishul disclaimer that this is a lot of generalization and that – as you rightly said – you should HURRY YOUR TUSH over to your college’s registrar’s office to see how much exactly you can expect to be refunded. y’all know my refrain of “GTF TO YOUR REGISTRAR’S OFFICE” now – i like that.
basically though, if you’re a part-time student for just one term, you are going to have under 3.0 credits finished in this academic year, which means you are eligible to be charged per course. meaning that you don’t have to pay the upfront program fee that makes all of us and our bank accounts cry; you’ll just have to pay the few hundred dollars per course that you completed in the fall. so no, you won’t get ALL your money back, but you won’t have to pay for any courses you didn’t take. capice? good.
oh, and yes, drop your courses on rosi. obvi.
but like i said, like you said, like everyone knows to say, obey the timeworn phrase: talk to your registrar. they will know the specifics of your situation and all the details that an internet joe like myself couldn’t possibly.
