Tying up all the loose ends-

[kfs]

Thought it would be useful for others (and me) for people to list what has to be done/sent in etc etc. I was away for a while and didn't get my info pack, and then discovered that there were some things that had to be sent in and such.

 

So-

Obviously, the 1000 non-refundable deposit/vaccinations/police check stuff has been done.

 

That leaves:

 

-setup queen's email

-send in photo for ID card

-send in that health verification sheet

-send in $100 for orientation

-send in personal data form

 

Any other to-dos that I'm missing?

- send in proof of citizenship?

- send in police check(s)? I had the criminal record check done, but also had to send off the vulnerable person screening that Jennifer emailed out.

 

I think the next deposit is due by Aug 15. I haven't paid this yet. It says $1000 + applicable fees, and there's about $1000 worth of fees, so I think I'm just going to pay $2500 to be safe. Does anyone know the exact "minimum" amount that has to be paid by the 15th? The remaining balance of tuition isn't due until Sept 30.

I'm a little confused as to the nature of the August deposit. The QCARD fees page still does not have any useful information, and I am inclined to think that the initial $1000 deposit (that we made upon acceptance) will cover the minimum amount due by the 15th. The Blue Book just states that the minimum amount is $1000, so this would make sense.

 

Please correct me if I'm mistaken.

Hey Arundip! That's what I thought too. The bluebook says that we have to pay $1000. Our deposit back in May/June was forwarded by the office to our university account, so we should all have -$1000 currently as our balance (well, unless there were scholarships or outstanding charges etc.) and that counts as the $1000 registration fee due August 15th.

 

In other news... what's up with our facebook group? I tried to check it today, but it doesn't show up.

Maybe I was dreaming about seeing this? I'm so sure that I saw it somewhere, but now I can't find it anymore. eek! I have to be at a booth for the Sidewalk Sale on Saturday the 9th, but I seem to remember that we are supposed to have a cardboard boat race at that time... Would anybody mind pointing me in the right direction? Thanks!

Hey bayervillager,

As for requiring another deposit, I agree with bayervillager and arundip. The "checklist" sent out with the offers states: "This [the $1000 acceptance deposit] will be applied toward your minimum registration fee and must be received to ensure your place in our class". So, I would be inclined to assume this means we have covered the payment due August 15, and don't have anything to worry about until September 30 rolls around!
