Payment Method 

Payment Deadline: Mid August, 2026
The program fee for all students should be paid via a telegraphic/wire transfer from your office to the designated bank account. You are responsible for paying all bank charges. For more details, please refer to the invoice you receive.

Paying the program fee one applicant at a time will result in being charged a handling fee (by the bank) for each transaction. Therefore, we highly recommend paying the total program fee for all applicants in a single transaction to avoid paying extra handling fees.
