Fees & payment
What it costs, and how to find out exactly.
Tuition depends on the programme and the current Virtual University schedule, so we give you a precise figure rather than an approximate one.
Pay in monthly instalments
You do not have to find the whole semester fee at once. Tuition is payable monthly, which is the single thing most students ask about first.
Fees follow the Virtual University schedule
Because the degree is awarded by Virtual University of Pakistan, tuition follows their published schedule for the programme and semester you enrol in.
Ask before you commit
We would rather give you an exact figure for your programme than publish a headline number that turns out not to apply to you.
