Fee Summary
Course fees are calculated by combining the
tuition fees, learning resources fee, and mandatory Students' Union and Alumni Relations fees. Academic-related fees are exempt from the federal Goods and Services Tax (G.S.T.). Other goods are not G.S.T exempt and are described in Section 5.8.1. Fees are listed and payable in Canadian dollars.
The payment of course fees entitles you to receive most learning resources and other support services (including tutorial assistance where provided) for the period of active registration.
Students attending Athabasca University grouped study courses at collaborating institutions may be assessed tuition and fees that vary from those established within this Calendar. Those students should contact an academic advisor or the Office of the Registrar at the institution.
Effective Dates
This fee schedule applies to students who are registering in courses that have a September 1, 2010 or later start date. It is Athabasca University's intention to increase its tuition fees in future years by the maximum amount permitted under the Government of Alberta's Tuition Fee Policy.

Returning Students
If you are a returning Athabasca University student, please log in to myAU. If you are no longer an active student, you may still access myAU and follow the “reactivation” procedure.
Once you have logged in to myAU, you may register in a course and view personal information, such as your AU Library account, and your assignment marks, and course grades. You may also take care of administrative matters, such as booking examinations, submitting assignments, and applying for extensions.
Athabasca University will also communicate directly with you through myAU. Check the Message Centre on your myAU home page for general information and for mail addressed to you.

General Application Form/Fee (New Students)
When first seeking admission to Athabasca University, all students submit a one-time $100 application fee with their completed Undergraduate General Application Form. This fee covers the administrative costs associated with entering student demographic information and creating student accounts and records.
The $100 application fee is non-refundable and payable only once regardless of how long ago you were an active student, or whether your requested start date is unavailable and you choose not to register in an Athabasca University course.
The Undergraduate General Application Form, used to apply for admission, is separate from the Undergraduate Course Registration Form used for registering in most Athabasca University courses. As a new student, you may still access myAU, but logging in won't be necessary.
