Paying Your Tuition Deposit

Congratulations! You have been accepted to SAIT.

Once you have received your offer of admission, your tuition deposit is required to confirm your seat.

The deposit equals approximately 20% of your total fees for your first term. This will be applied to your tuition – the remaining balance will be available and is due after you register for your classes.

Your admission offer will expire if your deposit is not received by the deadline listed on your offer letter. Paying your deposit before the deadline is essential, as we do not provide extensions. If we do not receive your deposit, your seat will be offered to someone else.

Your tuition deposit is non-refundable.
