NOTE

  • Tuition Fees are due two weeks prior to the start date of each unit/semester. Tuition Fees include unit registration, study materials, examination fees but do not include the cost of Textbooks and Online Library Fee.
  • Students who plan to attend face-to-face lectures/tutorial support classes in a local “Learning Center” in their country may be charged an additional fee by the Learning Center to cover administrative costs. This additional fee must not be more than 10% of the required Tuition Fees.
  • INSTALMENT PAYMENTS: Students who pay in 2 instalments are required to pay an additional fee of 5%, while those who pay in 3 instalments are required to pay an additional fee of 10% to cover administrative expenses associated with instalment payments.

HOW TO PAY FEES:

When you submit your application form on-line, KIUST will email you instructions about how to send your Application Handling Fees and Tuition Fees to KIUST through Ready GoPay International – Website: https://readygopay.com/.

You must not pay your Tuition Fees directly to representatives/agents (unless doing classes at a Learning Center), but if you pay any person or representative/agent any money you must obtain a receipt, bearing the name and address of the person or representative/agent, for the amount paid and email a copy of the receipt to us as proof of payment.

REFUND POLICY

  • As a general rule KIUST students are required to pay their fees two weeks prior to the commencement of the trimester. Every trimester students pay for the number of courses they enroll for in that trimester or pay their fees in instalments. KIUST will refund all payments made by a student if: (i) The course is cancelled, or (ii) Commencement of the course is postponed for more than four weeks.
  • Students are not entitled to a refund after commencing the course.
  • When studying through a Learning Center, the Tuition Fees (which cover the teaching and the examination fee) are paid directly to the Learning Center by the student because the Learning Centers provide lectures and tutorial support classes to students. The Learning Center must therefore issue a receipt bearing the Learning Center’s name. If a refund is required, the Learning Center is the one responsible for the refund.
  • Therefore, if a student withdraws from the course or program prior to commencement, or if the course is cancelled the Learning Center that enrolled the student and collected the fees will refund the full Tuition Fee paid by the student.
  • After a student has commenced the course or program there is no refund of Tuition Fees. However, the student may use the Tuition Fees to study another KIUST course or program offered in the Learning Center.
