Request a Refund

Refund cheques are routinely mailed by Student Financial Services in November, March or July. If you have a credit on your account, a cheque will be mailed to your current mailing address. Make sure we have your current contact information on file. Keep your information up-to-date!

We will respond to your request immediately, and if it can be fulfilled, a cheque will be mailed to you within seven business days. If for any reason we are unable to issue a refund, we will contact you as soon as possible after receiving your request to discuss the matter.

Important Note for Students Receiving OSAP

If you have withdrawn from courses since receiving your OSAP funding, and this has resulted in a credit on your student account, York is required by the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities to send all/part of the refund directly to your lending institution. This amount will be applied to your outstanding student loans to reduce the principal owing. If this situation applies in your case, you will be notified by letter of the amount of any refund York has sent to your lender.
