Student fees are assessed to student accounts every term of registration and invoices are posted monthly.
Laurier communicates by email with students and proxy users when new invoices are posted and provides reminders of holds added to accounts for non-payment. Laurier may also communicate by SMS or phone calls to encourage you to review your invoice, make a payment or reach out to our office if you need any support.
Laurier's internal collections team works with you to resolve past-due payment issues fairly and equitably.
In the case where your account balance remains outstanding after multiple attempts to connect, we will refer your account to the third-party collections agency, D&A Group Services, for support.

Statement of Financial Responsibility
By registering for classes at Wilfrid Laurier University, students agree to pay all assessed tuition and fees as a result of registration. Students are responsible to properly cancel, adjust or drop their registration in accordance with academic dates in the Academic Calendar. Students understand that decisions with respect to any request for course withdrawals, tuition refunds, tuition adjustments, or other fees are Wilfrid Laurier University’s sole discretion and in accordance with the applicable University policies and procedures. Furthermore, students agree to pay any additional charges they may incur, including, but not limited to: charges for residence, meal plans, class materials, late registration fees, other departmental charges, penalties and late payment fees.
Students understand that:
If you have submitted an appeal, in which you have not received a decision, please send proof of your submission to collections@wlu.ca by the deadline noted on our collection warning email(s). i.e. attach your email confirmation that you received after you successfully submitted your appeal.
After review of your submission, you will receive an email confirmation from us outlining our decision, next steps and expectations. If your documentation is accepted, you will be temporally removed from our current collection process.
Note: If you have submitted 2 or more appeals for the same term/academic year that have been denied. Unfortunately, we can not accept proof of submission to defer your collection’s referral to our external collection's agency. In this case, we recommend that you pay your account in full by the due date OR set up a verified payment plan with us by the deadline to avoid referral.
