Fee Details

  • Fee details are provided on the website: www.bothouniversity.com. However, international students fees may vary from the regular fees. Applicants are requested to contact the International Development Department for fee details relevant to their country and programme of study. The general fee policy is also applicable to
    international students.
  • All Botho University programmes follow a credit based tuition fee structure. Every programme consists of modules worth a specific number of credits. The number of credits for any module is available on www.bothouniversity.com under each programme. 60 credits per semester is normal full time load.
  • A student who wishes to take more than 60 credits in a semester requires special permission from the Dean. The tuition fee for a module is thus obtained by multiplying the module credits by the fee per credit (for e.g:- if the module is 10 credits the fees payable per module for an Undergraduate programme will be 10 x 200 = P2000.00). The tuition fee for a programme can thus be obtained by adding the fees for all the modules, calculated as explained earlier.
