I wonder if I am the only one upset about the fee charged by the College for sending out letters of standing?
The current rate is $73.50 to let another college know if I am in good standing or not. Considering the annual fee we have to pay, I feel this service should be part of our benefits for being registered. It is interesting to note that I had California send out a letter for $10, and Nunavut and Northwest Territories each charged $20. The College seems to charge what it can get away with, as we have no other options.
