How to Pay Tuition Fees

Four ways to pay, what to include so your payment is matched to your file without delay, and what happens once it clears.

Ways to pay

The school accepts four methods. Choose the one that suits you. Every method is acceptable, and none of them changes the amount you owe.

1. Credit or debit card on this website Fastest

Pay by card through the school's secure online payment system on this website. Card details are entered directly into the payment processor and are never seen or stored by the school.

This is the fastest route. The payment is recorded against your file immediately, so nothing has to be matched by hand and your place is secured without waiting.

2. Interac e-Transfer Within Canada

Send an Interac e-Transfer from your Canadian bank account to:

accounts@amcan.tech

Put your reference number and the student's full name in the message field of the transfer. If your bank asks you to set a security question, contact the accounts manager first and agree the question with them. Never put the answer in the same email as the transfer.

3. Bank deposit

You can deposit directly into the school's bank account at a branch or through your own online banking. Bank details are not published on this page. Email the accounts manager and ask for deposit instructions, quoting your reference number, and they will be sent to you.

4. Wire transfer From outside Canada

Students paying from outside Canada can send an international wire transfer. Email the accounts manager for the wire instructions, quoting your reference number.

accounts@amcan.tech

Before you send an international transfer, confirm with the accounts manager the exact amount and the currency to send, and ask who is responsible for the sending and receiving bank charges. Wire fees are deducted along the way by the banks involved, and a transfer that arrives short leaves a balance still owing on your file.

Please do not send cash, and do not send payment to any account or email address other than the ones confirmed to you in writing by the school. If you receive payment instructions that differ in any way from what is on this page, do not act on them. Telephone the school on 905-326-0045 and confirm before you send anything.

What to include with every payment

Card payments made on this website are matched to your file automatically. Every other method arrives at the bank as a name and an amount, and the school has to match it by hand. Two pieces of information make that immediate.

Include	Why it matters
Your reference number	It appears at the top of your balance invoice and in the subject line of the emails the school sends you. It looks like this: Ref. 12345678. It is the only reliable way to tie a payment to one student and one course.
The student's full name	Use the student's name exactly as it appears on the enrolment form, even when a parent or another relative is sending the money from their own account.

A payment that arrives without a reference number is not lost, but it sits unmatched until somebody works out where it belongs. That delay is the most common reason a student's course access is held up.

After you pay

• Card payments are confirmed on screen straight away and a receipt is emailed to you.
• Interac e-Transfers, deposits and wires are receipted by the accounts manager once the funds appear in the school's account and have been matched to your reference number. Allow the normal clearing time for your bank. International wires take the longest.
• Once tuition is paid in full, the school emails you the Student Enrollment Agreement. Sign it and return it to admissions@amcantech.org, quoting the same reference number. Return it as soon as your cancellation window has closed, and never later than seven days before your session starts.

If you have paid and have not received a receipt within a reasonable clearing time, email the accounts manager with the date, the amount and the method you used. Do not send the payment a second time.

If you need to cancel

Tuition is refundable in full for forty eight hours from the date of your balance invoice, provided the course has not started and course materials have not been released to the student. After that window closes, tuition is non-refundable except as set out in the school's published Financial and Refund Policy.

Refund and cancellation requests go to the accounts manager at accounts@amcan.tech, quoting your reference number.
