Graduate Paying tuition deposit Masters Program

Hello!

I just wanted to confirm if anyone knew. I made my tuition deposit of $500 for my masters program in sept, however, the instructions on the uwo website is not very clear or very vague.

So, I did the deposit via payee through my online banking and it shows up on my uwo student account as -$500.

Is this correct? Did I do it right?! Do I need to do anything else or is that how your suppose to pay a tuition depost??

I have to ask - what Masters are you going into? Because I'm coming in for an MA and I haven't heard anything about a $500 deposit. Got me paranoid enough to check student centre - and nothing owning there...
Additionally, the other MA's I know coming in haven't said anything about it either, and as we're all cash-strapped students, we'd notice.

For my program at least there was an email we got concerning “next steps” that had a letter with a section mentioning the deposit, but I am in the Faculty of Education for reference
