Dear Iftikhar,
Thank you for your mail. The process will now remain the same for the
subsequent semesters and by adding the option for 1,2,3 or 6
installments (all divisors of 6), students will be able to choose
their own payment schedule.
The semester enrollment fee was approved by the Board of Governors and
will require a full process to reverse it. It is not too much if you
divide it over six months.
Best regards,
Naveed
