Now Available: Payment Plans with PayMyTuition

We are excited to introduce PayMyTuition as Humber Polytechnic’s new payment plan provider. This service offers a seamless and convenient way to manage tuition and fee payments.  

Once students have paid their tuition deposit for the term, the next step is paying the balance of tuition fees before registration begins. Humber offers various options for students to pay or arrange for payment of the tuition balance including this opportunity to pay the tuition balance in instalments if that would be the best option for their personal budget and financial plan for the term. 

Please note: while Flywire will continue to be available as a method of payment, the payment plan previously offered through Flywire will no longer be available to students.  

Payment Plan Overview 

As of February 18, 2025, the payment plan for the upcoming summer term and those to follow will be provided through PayMyTuition. Students are encouraged to review the information about the plan to decide if it is the best option to help manage the payment of their fees.  

Students will access the PayMyTuition payment plan each term directly through MyHumber, making setting up and managing instalment payments easier than ever.  

• MyHumber > Student > Student Account & Fees > Payment and Account Centre. Upon redirecting to PayMyTuition's Payment Center, students will see "ENROLL IN PAYMENT PLAN" if they are eligible to enrol. They can select this option to begin the enrolment process. 

Before arranging a payment plan, students should note that the following will be required to access the plan: 

1. The tuition deposit for the upcoming term must be paid. 
2. A $35 administrative fee will be charged each time a payment plan is arranged. 
3. A minimum of 25 per cent of the total tuition balance owing for the term must be paid when enrolling in the payment plan. 

For more information on how to enrol in a payment plan and view key details of upcoming instalments, please visit humber.ca/payment-options.  

We look forward to continuing to provide students with the most efficient and secure financial options while they pursue their goals at Humber.  

Sincerely, 

Financial Services | Student Financial Services
