Students do not need to abandon their Centennial College application due to the challenges of personal finances during the pandemic. The College understands the financial impact that COVID-19 is having on students and is, therefore, offering flexible payment options.

Please note: It is important to be aware of important dates and deadlines related to fee payments when considering tuition payment flexibility options. Click here for important deadline dates, including deadline dates for requesting promissory notes.

Domestic Students

Tuition Payment Options:

• Tuition Deposit - $250 or Deposit Waiver
  • If you require payment flexibility to provide comfortable payment options for your tuition deposit, you may request Centennial waive your tuition deposit so that you may register in your course.
• Tuition Payment Plans – Promissory Notes
  • If you require payment flexibility or more comfortable options to pay the balance of your fees by your due date, you may request a Tuition Fee Payment Plan

Please note, if you have not already done so, you may apply for Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP) assistance. If you are a recipient of OSAP assistance, Centennial will automatically defer your full tuition fees deadline until the Ministry electronically remits fees to Centennial on your behalf for your tuition balance.
