With the approval of the Governing Council, the institute has adopted a friendly fees payment policy. This policy will make the experience for the majority of the students at the institution more fulfilling.

The following are highlights of the fees payment policy:

New Students

Every student admitted to a programme of study shall be issued a provisional admission letter with an invoice for payment of the requisite fees.
