There is an opt-out form for health insurance, it's available in the beginning of September.

The opt out period for the 2009-2010 policy year is from September 1, 2009 until September 30, 2009. THERE ARE NO EXCEPTIONS TO THESE DEADLINES

No, you pay first and then you get money back.

You need to prove that you have comparable coverage.

If you don't pay your tuition (or your first installment) by September 1, you're charged a late fee.

Most of the other fees are non-negotiable. I'm pretty sure the only thing you can opt out of is the insurance plans.

oh, alrighty!
thanks!

You can also opt-out of a nominal charge that is something like $0.45/unit...I think it's for funding for people with refugee status to attend Mac. Although I'm not sure how you opt-out of it.

I didn't know that there were other opt-out options but I wouldn't opt out of that fee anyway.
