Q: Is the collection of fees from students required as part of a proposal?
A:  No, Western’s Registrar will continue to collect students’ fees on our behalf. We would transfer or create a cheque to your company from that account on the determined payment schedule.
Q: Is a sponsorship required or any promotional materials (e.g. for welcome week)?
A: Inclusion of promotional materials (i.e. rave cards to be included in Orientation Kit packages, posters for oncampus distribution) will be considered as a factor during the evaluation of proposals.
