  3. Students who are completing one last subject in order to graduate, are also required to pay fees (tuition fee and compulsory miscellaneous fees) on a semester basis.
  4. Students who withdraw or apply for leave of absence from the University two or more weeks after the commencement of a semester are liable for the payment of fees (tuition fee and other compulsory fees) for the whole semester.
  5. National servicemen whose enrolment in the University is delayed by one or two years because they have to fulfil their NSF commitment, are allowed to enjoy a one-year or two-year lag in the payment of amount of subsidised tuition fee. For such students, the amount of subsidised tuition fee they have to pay will be shown in their electronic bills issued by the Office of Finance. The amount will depend on the year they were first offered a place in the University. For example, if they were offered admission in AY 2007, they pay the subsidised tuition fee applicable for AY 2007 when they are admitted to the University in AY 2009.
