Payment Plans & Financial Assistance
Flexible, interest-free payment plans available to students who prefer to pay out of pocket.
University Payment Plans
Personalised financial evaluation for each student
Payment plans are discussed during meetings where the student is evaluated privately and impartially to determine the amount that they and their family can be expected to contribute to their education.
This amount is then compared to the associated cost of education including tuition, fees, housing, meals, transportation, certain living expenses, books, and supplies.
