TUITION FEE
Whether the tuition for one or two semesters is to be paid depends on the number of weeks that the registered courses take. If the registered courses take no more weeks than half of year 6, one semester’s tuition fee is requested. If the number of weeks of the registered courses exceeds half of year 6, a full year’s tuition fee is requested.
