Paying your fees

You can pay once you arrive. Full-year students can pay in instalments. Semester students must pay their fees in one payment. Find out how to pay your fees.

In some cases, your home institution or programme provider will pay the tuition fee on your behalf, or they may have a special agreement with us which affects your fee status.

Pre-sessional courses will require a deposit.
