$5 of tuition unpaid..... Help!!!
I have paid my tuition through wire transfer.
The payment methods page says that CIBC will charge $10 for receiving the payment
But actually CIBC charged $15 , so $5 is left unpaid.
It will cost much more than $5 to pay it and it's almost the deadline.
So are there other opitions to work it out?

(I emailed about this to the school and I will call them tomorrow )

You can't Interac with CIBC at McMaster (So stupid)
Bill payment would be the easiest if you have an online account (You would have to do the Bill Payment for today or tomorrow).

Otherwise writing a check and commuting down to McMaster would be the best option. Accounts & Cashiers has a drop-box so you don't have to get there while their office is open.

If you can't physically get down to McMaster, you could express mail the cheque or just accept that the $5 will be late...1.2% interest on $5 isn't too bad, and then you've have until Sept 31 to pay off $6 (5*1.2=6)

Actually, there isn't interest charged on fees that aren't paid by September 1st.

According to the Terms and Conditions in the payment agreement"

how i pay my tuition is i just go to my bank (TD), tell them I go to mac and give them my student number, and they ask how much i want to add to my account (your mcmaster account number is your student number) and they do it for me straight out of my bank account. try going to the bank tmrw and doing this, i find its the most hassle-free way to pay tuition.

ALSO: im pretty sure if you go to the bank and add just $5 into your mcmaster account, it'll go towards the same account your original tuition went to through wire transfer. so you'll be good

Since currently I'm not in canada
I think the best and cheapest way is to pay them cash when I get there.
Thanks!!!all of you

Woah, when did that happen? Last year, I definitely remember getting charged 1.2% interest...or is that just for the other payment plans other than payment in full?

In that case...hopefully it's not too late to change your payment agreement so that you only get 1.2% instead of the extra fee!
