need help with tuition

Hi everyone! I’m going into my second year at TMU, and I’m a full-time undergraduate student. I’m really confused about my tuition balance and was wondering if anyone has experienced this.

I was originally enrolled in 5 regular undergraduate courses, including required QMS 702 (Calculus for Business). On August 12, I used the swap function to replace QMS 702 with CQMS 702 (Chang School) because of my schedule.

I am still taking 5 courses total and I am NOT adding a 6th course.

Before enrolling, I called Financial Aid/OSAP and specifically asked about the cost because I was only swapping a required course, not adding one. I was told that the Chang fees would be calculated with my undergraduate course fees as one outstanding balance, and that if OSAP covered my tuition/fees, I wouldn't need to make a separate payment. I have the call recorded.

My balance was:

Before swap: $5,527.73

After swap: $6,205.82

That's an increase of exactly $678.09, which is the full Chang course cost.

So I'm confused because it looks like the Chang fee was added without any adjustment to my regular undergraduate tuition.

Shouldn't the QMS 702 course I swapped out of be accounted for somehow since I'm still taking only 5 courses?

Does anyone know if: The tuition adjustment is still processing, or Full-time undergrads actually pay the Chang fee on top of their regular tuition when replacing a course?

I'm going to ServiceHub tomorrow to ask about it, but I'd really appreciate hearing from anyone who's done a similar swap. Thanks!
