Tuition Payment Plan Program

Laurier provides graduate students with a unique tuition payment option designed to help alleviate the financial pressures of pursuing graduate studies. The payment plan is open to graduate students who must request to participate in the plan on a term by term basis. 

Application Deadlines 

The Graduate Tuition Payment Plan enrolment for the Fall 2025 term is now closed. The deadline to complete and submit the Graduate Tuition Payment Plan Enrolment Form for consideration for the Fall 2025 term was August 24, 2025 by 11:59 PM (EST).  

For Winter 2026, we are anticipating a new system to be in place for student to use to enrol in the tuition payment plan. More details will be posted once they are finalized. Expect an update in early December. 

How the Plan Works

Students enrolled in the plan can pay tuition fees in three (3) equal installments applied monthly to their financial account. Payment due dates for each installment are invoiced after each installment effective date, which are noted below.

Cost of the Plan

There is a $50 non-refundable Grad Financing Fee for each term a student is enrolled in the plan. This fee covers the administrative costs of implementing the plan. 

Installment Effective Dates

Installment Effective Dates are not payment due dates. On or just after each installment effective date (see dates below), invoices with payment due dates will be issued and applied to your student account. A late fee of 1.25% will apply on any balances not paid by the installment's specified payment due date.  

  • First installment date: September 4* (this will also include the $50 Grad Financing Fee and, if applicable, any other fees not eligible to be included in the plan)
  • Second installment date: October 4*
  • Third installment date: November 4*

A notification will be sent to your MyLaurier student email account after each installment effective date to let you know when your invoice has been posted to LORIS and the invoice will include a payment due date.
