Payment Information for International Students
International students who are making a payment from outside of Canada should use Travelex Bank-to-Bank Transfer.
When you use Travelex’s Bank-to-Bank Transfer:
You make your payment in the currency of your choice which Travelex will then convert to Canadian Dollars.
There are no transaction charges from Travelex or York University, though you may be charged a transaction fee by your bank.
The exchange rate is valid for 72 hours after you have initiated the transaction if your confirmation and payment is received by Travelex within that period.
The exchange rate is competitive when compared to retail rates of your financial institution and for many students their bank service fees are also reduced because the transaction is being initiated as a local transfer.
Payments received will include your reference information and will ensure that your payment reaches your student account quickly.
