Since the spring/summer session already started, you have to pay pretty much immediately.

I believe the actual deadline was sometime around May 1st. I'm not sure if it's dependent on what payment option you selected under your payment agreement, but you've likely accumulated interest on the fee for your courses.
So, like jhan said, it's best to pay it off immediately.
You can pay by Interac online or you can pay in person at Student's Accounts and Cashiers (Gilmour Hall).

Sorry for bumping this i didnt want to make a duplicate. Once you register for a course for term 2 and if you decide you dont want to take it can you get a full refund even if you register late?

If you drop it before the add/drop date, I believe you do get a full refund.

1.2% a month at the end of the month. It's ACTUALLY monthly interest (unlike the banks where they state monthly interest rates but it's actually "divided" into daily interest).

Supplementary fees are nonrefundable in keep in mind. It is 126 for one course for me. Signed up for chem last night but don't want to pay in case i cant do it due to job conflicts.

No, once you are registered you have to pay. It's the same for Fall/Winter, the entire sum is due in September and interest accumulates after that.

If you registered 2 weeks ago, you probably just got a 1.2% interest charge on May 31st. Interest is only charged on the last day of every month.

Im assuming that unless you plan to drop the course by the 24th, your going to have to pay in full. If you know for sure your taking the course you should for sure pay very soon if you completed the payment agreement and definitely before classes start on the 20th. I think that im going to hold off on paying and completing the payment agreement until the 18th or so when im closer to knowing for sure if im going ahead with taking the course
