Hello aska,<\/p>\n
I am currently an international student at U of T. I am planning to apply for permanent residency since I qualify. It’s gonna take some time for me to get it, so I might still have to pay international student fees this year before the first semester starts. But if I did get PR this fall, would I get a refund from university as I would be exempt from international fees?<\/p>\n
Thanks!<\/p>\n

hey there,<\/p>\n
the rule of thumb in 2014-2015 was that if you submitted sufficient documentation (i.e. if you’d already gotten the permanent residency or you were really, really close to getting it) to the registrar’s office before november 1st<\/a>, then your fees were altered for the entire Fall\/Winter term. so if you already paid some international fees for that term before that date, that would result in a refund<\/a>.<\/p>\n that’s a pretty good guideline for this year as well, but make sure to keep an eye on the fees website<\/a> just in case there are any updates\/changes in the process. ’cause the university sure does love to make those<\/a>.<\/p>\n cheers,<\/p>\n aska<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hello aska, I am currently an international student at U of T.
