Fees must be paid in full at the time of registration. Your registration is not complete until fees are paid. A student who registers but does not pay may have their registration cancelled and will not receive credit for the course or program.
Tuition fees for full-time programs are determined by term. You must pay for each term on time or a late payment fee is assessed.
Students who are being sponsored by an outside agency must present a letter from the sponsoring agency before or at the time of registration.
Follow this step-by-step guide to paying your fees.
