Reminder:  Domestic students are not able to pay for tuition and other semester related fees by credit card. See below for ways to pay.

Online banking or telebanking

Pay by online banking or telebanking through your bank or credit union. Check with your branch for details and/or to arrange access. Select University of the Fraser Valley as the payee and use your student ID number as your account number.

If paying by online banking, please allow up to three business days before the deadline for the payment to be processed by your banking institution. You may also pay your deposit in advance of your registration date and time.

In person

Pay tuition through the Office of the Registrar using cheque, money order, bank draft or debit card. Post-dated cheques are not accepted. If paying by debit, contact your bank to ensure your daily limit will allow the amount of your tuition. Cash and Passport to Education payment options are no longer accepted.

If paying by cheque, ensure it is for the exact amount owing on your account and include your name, UFV ID, address, and telephone number on your cheque. A $25 penalty will be charged for NSF/returned cheques.

 Info for international students:

To pay from abroad, you can use WU®GlobalPay for Students, an international student payment portal that makes it easy and cost-effective for you or your family to pay in your local currency from your home bank account.

To pay from Canada, you can use online banking from a Canadian bank, or use a credit card  (Visa, MasterCard, American Express).

Full-time students (9 credits or more) will also be automatically enrolled in the Student Union Society Health and Dental Plan which provides extended health and dental coverage.

As an international student, you are welcome to purchase medical insurance from your home country. However, the medical insurance that UFV provides, both the private and provincial, is mandatory for all International students. Learn more.
