Prescribed student fees: undergraduate studies

The fees for various undergraduate modules and degrees, as well as the payment deadlines and minimum fees required by respective dates, are listed here.
The minimum amount payable at registration

Each module or paper for which you register as a minimum price that must be paid before the registration deadlines. The university will be unable to process your registration if this sum is not paid before the registration deadline. After paying the minimal amount, the outstanding balance must be paid by the applicable dates.

If you do not pay your fees into the correct bank account with the correct reference number, the university will not be able to finalize your registration before the deadline. If an employer/sponsor provides a letter indicating that they will be responsible for payment, the institution can send a quotation to the employer/sponsor. Only if the minimum payment is received by the applicable closing date will registration be enabled. It is the obligation of the student to guarantee that the employer/sponsor pays the fees on time. There will be no exceptions for late payments. It is preferable for a student to pay his or her costs and then request reimbursement from the sponsor.
