UCalgary can take payment for external awards through CIBC Student Pay, Convera Global Pay for Students or by cheque. The organization may send payment directly to you or forward their funding to the University of Calgary on your behalf. In such cases, the university applies the award payment towards your outstanding tuition and fees.
To pay through CIBC Student Pay, access CIBC Student Pay's University of Calgary page.
Please note: You do NOT need to be a client of CIBC to use this service. External award agencies need to know the Student Account number, which is the student’s UCID.
To pay through Convera Global Pay for Students, access Convera Global Pay’s University of Calgary page.
Please note: You do NOT need to be a client of Convera Global Pay to use this service. External award agencies need to know the Student Account number, which is the student’s UCID.
Payment by Cheque
Cheques or Money Orders must be made payable to The University of Calgary, and can be sent to the following mailing address:
Accounts Receivables
MacKimmie Tower, 9th Floor
2500 University Drive NW
Calgary, Alberta T2N 1N4
If paying by cheque, please submit payment as soon as possible, preferably no later than 30 days prior to the start of the term to avoid payment posting delays to the student account. Payments made later than 30 days prior to term start may result in late interest and holds being assessed to the student’s account due to payment processing time.
Payment by cheque can take up to 4 weeks for processing to the student account, and requires supporting documentation referencing the student award, otherwise delays in applying payment to the student account may occur. Students are accountable for any holds or late interest incurred due to the processing time for external award payments.
Please refer to the following webpage for any tax impacts to students receiving External Award payments.
