Ease your registration next year by paying your minimum payable fees early (December or January) into the University’s bank account. Also, make sure your outstanding University account is fully settled because you will not be permitted to register for next year if any fees for the year are still outstanding. Also, take note that no respite will be granted for payment of the minimum fees payable.
International students must pay the full amount for their proposed study and relevant costs in advance before registration can be finalized.
