Payment Schedule

1. You can retrieve your e-statement of account, view your Account Summary and the due date for payment of fees in AIMS under Student Record > My Finance. The tuition fee information of your programme in the coming years is also available in your Account Summary page.
   
   
2. An e-statement of student fees for charging of tuition fee and other fees will be available in AIMS under Student Record > My Finance about two to three weeks before the payment due date. Students can view or print the e-statement from AIMS and pay the account balance using one of the Payment Methods. A penalty charge of 2% on the outstanding balance will be imposed if the balance is not settled by the due date. Please refer to the following payment schedule for the current academic year.


Payment Schedule 2024/25

For programmes with tuition fee charged on a per credit unit basis
(For Student Admitted in or before 2019 Cohort) Students will be charged a minimum tuition fee of two credit units before the start of Semesters A and B. The balance of tuition fee chargeable for the semester/term will be calculated based on the number of credit units registered.
(For Student Admitted in or after 2020 Cohort) Students will be charged an instalment in the first statement before the start of Semesters A and B. Instalment payments will offset the tuition fees of the student's actual course registration in the concerned semester.  If the instalment is greater than the tuition fees for the semester, the balance will be credited back to the student's account to cover future tuition fees.  For instalment that cannot cover the tuition fees for the semester, additional tuition fees will be charged to the second statement. The schedule for payment is as follows:
Semester A 2024/25	2 September 2024 (First Statement) 30 September 2024 (Second Statement)
Semester B 2024/25	13 January 2025 (First Statement) 17 February 2025 (Second Statement)
Summer Term 2025	7 July 2025



3. You should finalise your study plan by the close of the course add/drop period. If you need to apply for leave of absence, withdrawal of studies or reduction of study load, please submit an application via AIMS by Week 2.
