Departments/instructors are not permitted to charge mandatory supplementary fees which are not assessed by the Office of the Registrar. Students may be charged a laboratory breakage fee by departments. Mandatory supplementary fees for courses will be payable to the Fee Office at the University of Calgary by the same deadline dates for all fee assessments and are not refundable after the last day to change courses for the session(s) in which the course is being offered. The following general principles are applicable to course supplementary fees: 1. Operating revenues (including tuition fees) should provide for credit instruction, which includes the following:
(a) Evaluation of work/performance which includes
practicums, marking of papers, examinations and other
assignments. 2. Mandatory supplementary fees for courses are those which may be considered for special materials or services not included under general principle #1, if deemed necessary for the successful completion of the course as approved by the Vice-President (Finance & Services). 3. Optional supplementary costs are those which may be incurred for materials which become the property of the student and for which the student has the option of obtaining from a variety of sources. Examples include but are not limited to the following: art supplies, equipment which would become the property of the student, laboratory coats, laboratory manuals, and materials which are reproduced (all of which could, and probably should, be purchased through a University retail outlet). |
These principles do not apply to courses offered off-campus. Questions regarding mandatory supplementary fees can be directed to the Office of the Registrar, the Fee Office or the department initiating the fee. | |
