Can the tuition fees be paid in instalments?

No. Students are not allowed to pay part of their semester fees in instalments. 50% of the semester tuition fee is to be paid at the start of the semester, and the rest in equal monthly instalments. However, this instalments is only applicable with Chief Executive approval.

Is it possible for me to pay less than the minimum 50% tuition fee required at the start of semester? Can I pay the 50% in instalments?

Students who have not paid at least the 50% tuition fees at the start of a semester are not allowed to proceed with their studies, e.g. not allowed to attend lectures and tutorials.

However, a student who has genuine financial constraints may apply for special consideration by writing to Chief Executive and stating the nature of the financial problems faced and proposing a payment schedule. Decision is based on discretion of the Chief Executive.

I am applying for study loan. Can I defer payment of the tuition fees until my loan has been approved / released?

If the loan has already been approved, the student may be allowed to defer payment of the tuition fees until the release of the loan amount by the bank. The student will need to apply for the deferment by writing to Chief Executive. The loan approval letter from the bank should be enclosed.

If the loan is at the processing stage, i.e. loan has not yet been approved by the bank, the student is expected to pay the minimum 50% tuition fee as required without waiting for the loan approval. Once the loan is approved and the loan amount released to MIIM, the student will be "refunded" the amount of tuition fee already paid.

How do I make sure I qualify for the discounts given on lump sum payment of tuition fee?

The 7% discount on full tuition fee is only given if the student settles the relevant amount within one month of the start of the semester.
