Payment options

Visa and MasterCard credit cards are accepted forms of payment for the undergraduate admission deposit. You can pay on  under "My admission to 間眅埶AV" and "view and pay my fees."

Graduate students can pay by credit card through their  system, or use one of the other methods listed on this page. Please note that admission deposits may vary by graduate program.

Please note: The non-refundable admission deposit payment might not go into the term you intend to enrol in. This is because payments are credited according to the default term set up on the student information system, which only changes midway through the terms. However, your account will NOT be adversely affected by this. Once you enrol in classes, the credit will automatically move to the term in which you are enrolled.

How to pay your admission deposit

  • Credit card payments made via the web are processed immediately; if you pay by internet banking or by cheque, please allow at least two to three business days for your deposit to be processed before you enrol in classes. This deposit will be deducted from your total tuition; it's not an additional charge.

Note: This admission deposit is non-refundable and non-transferable.

If you have enrolled in courses and later decided to attend another educational institution or withdraw from 間眅埶AV, please ensure you drop all the courses you have enrolled in as soon as possible. Otherwise, you will be responsible for any outstanding tuition and fees in your student account.
