Accommodation Payments
You have access to fully-subsidized accommodations-related services from the moment you complete the registration procedure. As required, we also provide you access to services like Alternate Format, CART/ASL, Adaptive Technology training and Educational Assistant /Lab Aid support. You will be responsible for applying for a student loan through your provincial funding agency (i.e., Alberta Student Aid for Alberta residents). Your active loan application allows our office to create and help you submit the application for disability grants to cover the costs of government-funded services.
During the course of the academic year, our office will send you an invoice outlining the cost of the government-funded services you accessed. You must pay this invoice with funds from the disability grant our office helps you access. If you do not pay this invoice, the university may place an encumbrance upon your student records. The university reserves the right to withhold grades and transcripts and to deny registration or access to registration materials for non-payment.
Paying for Accommodation-related Services
- Pay in person at our office in 1-80 SUB Bldg. by debit, credit card, cheque or bank draft (Made payable to the University of Alberta).
- Pay over the phone (780-492-3381) by credit card only.
Submitting receipts + returning money
A copy of the receipt you receive from paying your invoice should be sent to your provincial funding agency immediately. Submitting your receipts demonstrates to the government that you used the funds for their intended purpose. If you do not submit the receipts by the end of your loan period, the government will convert the grant to a loan that must be repaid, which may reduce your loans and grants approved the subsequent year.
