2. The cost for foreign applications is higher than for local ones since the College has to pay high bank charges for foreign deposits. Therefore the admission fee is higher for students who pay in a foreign currency.
3. An annual registration fee of R1500 (subject to adjustment without prior notice) is payable upon arrival at the College at the beginning of the academic year.
4. A refundable maintenance / key deposit of R450.00 is payable by dormitory students upon arrival at the College.
