Ancillary fees - Graduate
2019-2020 academic year
Ancillary fees (formerly incidental fees) are related to student activities, services and associations. Examples include student union fees and student services fees (Health Services, Sports Services and University Centre). They vary by level of study (undergraduate or graduate), by faculty and, in some cases, by department. Please note that in certain cases, ancillary fees are not applied.
Note about U-Pass fees: We published the wrong amount for 2019–2020 U-Pass fees on certain University fees web pages. This has now been corrected. The actual amount is $425.42 for the Fall and Winter terms combined. We apologize for any inconvenience.

GSAED - Students' Association- Optional services
In fall 2019, it was possible to opt out of paying ancillary fees for one or more services due to a decision by the Ontario government to make certain services non-essential. However, this decision was challenged by the Canadian Federation of Students—Ontario. On November 21, the Ontario Divisional Court ruled in favour of the CFS and cancelled this government measure. Therefore, starting in January 2020 term, the University will require payment of all ancillary fees and you will no longer be able to opt out of some of them. These fees will be added to your statement of account for the Winter 2020 term.

University Health Insurance Plan (UHIP) for international students
In addition to the collective insurance premiums above, full time international students who study at an Ontario university must pay premiums for UHIP, a health insurance plan that covers most medical treatments and health services. Whereas collective insurance covers the cost of dental check-ups and many prescription drugs, UHIP covers doctor’s visits and most hospital costs.
Depending when you start your program, you will need UHIP coverage for 4, 8 or 12 months. The 12-month coverage period runs from September 1 to August 31. Rates vary from year to year.
Below are all the 2019–2020 coverage periods and amounts for a single person based on when you start your program:
- September 2019: 12 months — $636
- January 2020: 8 months — $424
- Spring/Summer 2020: 4 months — $212
Note that rates are higher for family or couples coverage.
