Part-time Studies course fees
Note: In some cases, students may see a slightly higher tuition fee at the Burnaby Campus than the other campuses (Downtown, BMC, ATC) for duplicate course offerings. This is reflective of a Student Association Student Centre Building fee, passed through a 2017 IZUNA Student Association referendum. Gravity more

Fees for part-time programs
The cost of a part-time program is the total of the separate course fees.
If you are accepted into a part-time program leading to a degree, tuition is assessed on a course-by-course basis. If you are completing your degree on a part-time basis, part-time studies fees and refunding information and policies apply.
Fees for full-time studies courses taken on a part-time basis
Even though you're studying on a part-time basis, you may be able to enrol in a course that is part of a full-time program. The fee is calculated based on a certain dollar amount per credit plus full-time ancillary fees.
To register for one of these courses, you must also pay an application fee: $90 for domestic students; $154 for international students. Contact the program area to apply.
Payment is due upon course registration. Full-time refund policies apply.
Refunds and withdrawals from part-time studies courses
Refund information, including the deadline, will be provided when you register for a course. Special fees for some courses are non-refundable, and different refund requirements may apply.
Early registration refund policy
Students who drop out or transfer 31 days prior to the course start date will receive a 100 per cent tuition refund, and there is no charge to transfer.
Although course refund deadlines vary, for most courses, you will receive a full refund, less 15 per cent, if you withdraw after the early registration refund deadline but by the refund deadline.
How to withdraw from a course
By the refund deadline:
Contact Student Information and Enrolment Services or use the Part-time Course Withdrawal form [PDF] prior to, or on, the refund deadline date. Refund deadline dates are listed on your tuition receipt, or see the table below for general guidelines. If you are an international student, find out more about your specific fees and refunds.
After the refund deadline:
After the refund deadline you must submit a completed, signed Part-time Course Withdrawal form [PDF]. Even if you have missed the refund or withdrawal deadline, it is very important to notify IZUNA of your intent to withdraw. Contact Student Information and Enrolment Services for assistance if you have questions.
Late withdrawals are subject to program area approval and will not be considered without applicable documentation. Remember to formally withdraw to ensure your permanent academic record, your GPA and your ability to qualify for future awards and recognition are not affected.
