You can definitely drop/add courses after August 13th, up until September 21st I believe.

The amount that you agreed on in the payment agreement may change depending on what course you dropped or added. Courses don't all cost the same, it differs by faculty and year by varying amounts.

You only have to confirm your payment agreement. You pay in late august depending on your payment option.

Although the 1.2% isn't a lot.. Why would you wanna pay an extra.. anything on it.. Regardless, it's better to finish it asap! Just so you're not paying any more that you already have to.. even if its $20.. It could be spent on better things

Yeah, but there are some cases where if you pay in full you basically have nothing left for those four months. I think I had a 1000 dollars left, and if I was on my own, I would've been dead by now lol. It's not really a laughing matter, but it's a reality for some people. I used OSAP to pay for my tuition, and that's why I had nothing left. Didn't have any other money in my bank. It was the parents who kicked in, but my family is definitely not well off at all.

That's definitely true. You really don't want to short stack yourself money wise just so that you can pay for school in full. Sometimes it's better just to pay a little bit of interest and be able to live comfortably.
