Reading your fee statement

📌 Info updated as of 20 February 2026

Reading your fee statement

1. If you have an outstanding balance, please make your payment by the due date or the approved payment plan date. If the due date has passed for past outstanding, your immediate payment is required to avoid encumbrance.
2. If your Fee Statement shows an amount in negative (ie the amount is in brackets), this means the following:
- If the description starts with “1400xxxxxx” - this refers to the receipt number of your payment made.
- If the negative amount is in the “Adjustment column” - this means fee reduction for dropped subjects.
- If the “Total to pay” amount at the bottom of the table is in brackets - this denotes that you have made an excess payment. This excess balance amount will be applied to your future invoices. If it is not in brackets, this amount needs to be paid to the University.
1. Why is my tuition fee waiver (TFW) / discount not in my Fee Statement?
  - Your outstanding fee does not include your TFW/discount/bursary amount until after this semester's census date on 31 March 2026.
  - Please refer to the University principal dates for census date information.
  - You can deduct the TFW/discount/bursary amount from the Fee Statement for the final outstanding fee due. If there is an outstanding fee after deducting, please make a payment. Sibling discount can only be offset against the next semester's fee.
2. If you have an approved payment plan, please ensure your payments are up to date.
You may disregard the semester section and instead refer to the amount at the bottom of the Fee Statement table (“Total to pay”) to make payment, if applicable.
- See our fee payment methods.
- If you do not receive a receipt after 5 working days, please submit the Proof of Payment to the Finance Helpdesk (Semester Fee Payment Proof).
- Ensure that you allow sufficient time (typically 3-5 working days) for your payment to be processed by your bank.
- If you are unable to pay your fees by the due date, you may be eligible for a fee payment plan.. For more info, please refer here and write to us at Finance Helpdesk (Financial Difficulties).
- We encourage you to reach out to us immediately so we can work together to arrange a suitable payment plan for you. Reaching out sooner rather than later will help avoid encumbrance on your Moodle account, which can be more complicated to resolve once applied.
1. Will service tax affect new and continuing students?
Yes. All new and continuing non-Malaysian students will be subject to service tax on eligible fees charged on or after the effective date.
- Effective 1 January 2026, the University issues e-invoices to all students. More information here.
- You may keep the e-invoices for record purposes only. Instead always refer to the Fee Statement for the summary of the total amount to be paid (if any).
