CNCSU Fee Breakdown
Similar to virtually every students' union in Canada, the College of New Caledonia Students' Union is primarily funded by member dues. CNC students pay these dues to the students' union and the British Columbia Federation of Students' at the same time as they register for classes and pay tuition fees. As per the College & Institute Act of BC and the students' union's Constitution and Bylaws, all dues have been voted on by CNC students through our referendums.
