TUITION FEES AND EXPENSES

Course Fees

EAST desires to provide quality theological education for all its students. Tuition charges paid by the students only cover a portion of the actual costs of the education. The school depends on gifts and grants from friends, corporations, churches, and other Christian organizations to provide the balance of the operating costs. All expenses itemized in the table below are estimates for one person (unless noted otherwise) and subject to change. All fees include 7% Goods and Services Tax (G.S.T.) payable to Government.

NOTE: Tuition fees are subjected to 5% increment annually. Application fee and new student acceptance fee are one time and non-refundable.

PAYMENTS OF SCHOOL FEES

A bill stating the number of credits a student has registered for the quarter, the amount to pay and the dates for making payment will be placed in his mailbox during the second week of classes. A student can either pay in cash or by cheque to the Accounts Executive. Cheques should be made payable to "East Asia School of Theology".

A late payment fee of S$10.70 will be imposed if a student pays after the deadline. If a student is unable to pay on time, kindly consult the Accounts Executive before the deadline or a late fee will be imposed. Staff members of Campus Crusade for Christ (CCC) who wish to pay through deduction from their support account and those students who are on scholarship funding need not submit the bill to the Accounts Executive unless there are any errors.

Purchase of Textbooks

A copy of the book-list will be given to the students during registration time. Each student needs to submit his textbook order together with a non-refundable textbook deposit (S$5 per book) to the Accountant. He can collect the textbooks when the books arrive. He can pay the balance by cash or cheque upon collection of the books.
