Important: an instalment plan can only be entered into when a student provides a valid debit or credit card for recurring card payments. You will need to set up a new instalment plan each semester to ensure that card details and course fees are still valid. It is the student’s responsibility to set up a new plan each Semester. If a plan is breached, a new plan will not be offered.
