Payments

Residence Deposits

Students must pay residence deposits in order to accept a residence offer from New College. Deposit totals and deadlines are included in the residence offer email.

Residence deposits must be paid through the University housing portal, StarRez, typically using a credit card. Payment instructions are included in the residence offer. Residence deposits cannot be paid through ACORN.

ACORN Invoice

Full year residence and meal plan fee totals are posted to incoming residents’ ACORN accounts in early August. On ACORN, select “Financial Account” and then “View Invoice” or “Invoice & Net Cost” to see your invoice.

For help with understanding your ACORN invoice, visit “University Registrar’s Office – Understanding Your Fees.”

Payment Deadlines

Residence and meal plan fees are divided into two instalments: a Fall instalment and a Winter instalment.

These instalment amounts can be found in “Schedule “B” – Occupancy Fee Rates” in the Residence Policies document and, once posted, on residents’ ACORN invoice.

Individual residents’ payment deadlines for these instalments will vary depending on whether they register for school by paying or deferring their Minimum Payment to Register at the beginning of the Fall-Winter session.

For residents who register by paying their Minimum Payment to Register:

• the Fall installment is due by September 30th;
• the Winter installment is due by November 30th.

Residents who register by deferring their Minimum Payment to Register will have different deadlines depending on their reason for deferring. You can confirm your payment deadlines on the University Registrar’s website, under “Remaining Balance.”

Making a Payment

Payments towards your Fall and Winter residence and meal plan installments are made to your ACORN account. For information about the different methods of making a payment to ACORN, visit “University Registrar’s Office – Payment Options.” 

Residence deposits must specifically be paid through the University housing portal, StarRez, typically using a credit card. Payment instructions are included in the residence offer. Residence deposits cannot be paid through ACORN.
