International Tuition & Fees

Application Fee

A $125 non-refundable application fee must be sent with your application.

Paying your tuition deposit

Do you have an offer letter yet? You can only pay your tuition deposit after you have applied and received an offer letter. Find out how to apply.

Your tuition deposit is $10,000. The $10,000 will go directly towards the tuition cost of your program until it has all been spent. This often covers most of your first term costs.

How to pay your deposit and college fees

Your deposit, campus housing fees, and many other payable fees are tracked in your CNC account and are payable through the PayMyTuition service.

If you can’t pay your tuition fees up front, CNC offers payment plans to help you pay in smaller installments.
