Is it true that in Dubai, there is no need to show living expenses proof and tuition fees can be paid in installments after initial payment?

No, you do need to show proof of living expenses for a student visa in Dubai. Demonstrating sufficient funds for both tuition fees and living expenses is a required part of the visa application process.

Many universities in Dubai allow you to pay tuition fees in installments after making an initial payment or deposit to secure your seat. However, the first payment is usually required upfront.
