LOA (Letter of Acceptance) Policy: (Effective Nov. 1, 2023, the following LOA policy has expired and no longer applicable)

If you have received a decision from Can-College confirming your admission approval, congratulations! We look forward to seeing you at Can-College!

Admission Offer and Confirming Acceptance

When you receive your admission offer letter, an invoice for your Letter of Acceptance (LOA) processing fee will be sent to you by email at the same time. This is when you have paid the LOA fee and confirmed your admission per terms in the offer letter. The Can-College admission process and LOA fee is a non-refundable fee. The Can-College Letter of Acceptance and Admission Registration fee range is between $250 CAD - $500 CAD for processing your admission and LOA. Please note that this fee is also non-refundable if a visa is rejected. However, it is considered towards tuition fee upon receiving a visa and if the student starts the program with the Can-College.

There is no refund on the admission processing/LOA fee.
There is a non-refund to the tuition-enrollment fee once the program is started or completed.
The tuition fee is 100% refundable if paid in advance by the student and the study visa-permit application is not successful.

All tuition payments can be made, in CANADIAN dollars, by Visa, MasterCard, wire transfer, or Western Union (money order or certified cheques may be accepted from Canadian accounts). All payment details can be found in the Letter of Acceptance or r efer to our Payment page.

Your Letter of Acceptance may contain one of the three following situations:

1. Accepted: If your letter indicates you have been accepted into your program, the next step is for you to confirm your intention to come to Can-College by sending your confirmation fee payment. Full instructions are in your Letter of Acceptance.

2. Accepted with Conditions: If your acceptance letter indicates you are accepted with conditions, it will include a list of one or more conditions that you must meet to earn a seat in your program. You should work to meet these conditions as soon as possible. Your seat in your program is not secured until we have received verification that all conditions have been met.

A condition may be as simple as providing additional academic documentation, or it might be something like needing to upgrade English or math skills. Your Letter of Acceptance will have all the information.

3. LOA Deferrals and Extensions due to a delay in the visa-permit process: If for any reason you wish to change the date or defer your admission to a different session, it is possible but will be subject to the availability of seats at that time. Unfortunately in this situation, we may not be able to offer you a seat in the program and session that you have chosen. You can speak to one of the Can-College Service Manager about other program options if required.
