Due to COVID-19 the time limit for psycho-educational assessments has been extended to seven years for the 2021-2022 academic year.

Costs Associated with Assessments

The cost of a psycho-educational assessment may be covered by some extended health plans, the Bursary for Students with Disabilities for students who are eligible for OSAP, or through personal finances.
