Q. How do I know if the admissions system is fair?
A. Institutions work hard to ensure that their admissions procedures are fair and transparent.

The final decision on any individual's application is a matter for the individual institution.
Q. When do I need to pay my fees?
A. There is no deadline for payment of tuition fees; however you will need to show proof of payment of your first year's tuition fees at enrolment. We would still advise you to pay your fees by the first week of August, as by doing so, there would be sufficient time for the UAL to issue you a receipt of fee payment and this would ensure that there are no complications later. Fees can be paid either through bank transfer or in the shape of a bank draft. This can be done through any bank in India dealing with foreign exchange. |
