# Descriptions for ancillary fees for academic year 2021/2022 Fall

### Ancillary Fees

#### Compulsory \(Essential\) Ancillary Fees

Compulsory ancillary fees are mandatory fees that a student is required to pay — in addition to tuition fees — to enrol in or successfully complete any ministry-funded course. These fees are regulated by the Compulsory Ancillary Fee Protocol Committee at Seneca. Once agreed upon and approved, these fees are mandatory and charged to all students unless otherwise stated.

#### Optional \(Non-Essential\) Ancillary Fees

These fees are for services not deemed as falling under the ministry criteria as an essential service but add value for students and provide them with additional benefit. Many of these services are associated with those provided by the student government. Students will have the choice to decide if they want to pay for these services.

Students have until the [last day to drop courses with a refund](https://students.senecapolytechnic.ca/spaces/135/important-academic-dates/wiki/view/728/important-academic-dates) to opt out of optional ancillary fees.
