After receiving the offer letter, do we need to pay the fees before joining or can we proceed further without paying?
It depends on the university and program. Most universities require you to pay a tuition fee deposit after receiving your offer letter to secure your place. The amount and deadline are usually mentioned in your offer letter.
- If a deposit is required, you must pay it before you can proceed with enrollment or visa processes.
- Not paying the required deposit by the deadline can result in your offer being withdrawn.
- Some universities allow you to pay the remaining tuition fees at or before registration, but the initial deposit is often mandatory.
Always review your offer letter carefully for payment details and deadlines.
