Payment of fees
How and when to pay
Upon notification of acceptance, HBS will provide prospective students with an official Acceptance Letter, which is necessary in many countries for student visa requests as well as for military deferral.
Fifty percent (50%) of the tuition fee for each program that the student is applying for is due upon notification of acceptance and application at the Embassy. This deposit will be credited toward the student’s tuition or refunded if official notification of withdrawal is received thirty (30) days before enrollment.
The balance of tuition and student fees is due by Admission Day at the beginning of each term. Payments can be made by direct bank transfer. Please be sure the student’s name is included on the bank transfer notice. Non-payment will result in the student not being accepted in class.
You can choose to pay either annually or in instalments. Once proof of payment has been received, the Admissions Office will contact you about what to do next.
