SFU assesses supplementary fees for all eligible students in each term of enrolment. If you see these fees on your Student Account, then you meet the criteria of an 鈥渆ligible student.鈥
The U-Pass BC program is a partnership between BC post-secondary institutions, their student societies, TransLink, and the Province of British Columbia. SFU's U-Pass BC Program is a mandatory program for all members of the Simon Fraser Student Society (SFSS) and all members of the Graduate Student Society (GSS).
Exemptions from the U-Pass BC program may be considered under specific criteria, as outlined on the U-Pass BC eligibility website. You must apply before the exemption deadline to be considered.
Why are supplementary fees being charged for remote courses?
The Student Services fee is being charged because Student Services continues to provide support throughout the term, both remotely and in person.
Similarly, the Student Activity fee is being charged as the Student Societies continue to offer their programs and activities, whether virtually or in person.
