International payments
If international students pay from the bank in their home country it may take up to 10 working days for the payment to reflect in UP’s account. Please pay well in advance of the payment deadline.
International payments can be made using a credit card (provided you have 3D one-time PIN security in place with your own bank) on the University website, or by doing a SWIFT transfer from your bank in your own country.
Please use the correct University bank account for the various international transactions.
