EduVisa GSM believes that costs shouldn’t be a barrier to personal development and university studies, and consequently strives to ensure that tuition fees remain lower than those of traditional universities and business schools. The EduVisa-NSFAS / World Bank Regional Scholarship Programme grants a Scholarship Discount of 25% (L4Dip.Man, L5HDip.Man, L6GDip.Man & L7PGDip.Man) and 25% (MBA Top-Up, BA, B.Sc., LLB, MBA, M.Sc., LLM) to a student that originates from or resides in any of the countries classified under a World Bank Development Tier 2 Region on date of registration. The following countries qualify as World Bank Tier 2 countries:

In order to alleviate the costs of the iMBA Degree Programme EduVisa, in association with our university partners, have introduced the iMBA Prepaid Discount Programme (PDP) which makes provision for a prepaid discount of 10% if the student combined registration and payment for the following iMBA curriculum components: 

The iMBA Prepaid Discount Programme (10%) can be utilised in combination with the Regional Discount Programme (25%) (If applicable) but is limited to a quota of 18 students (globally) per calendar year. 

Students who desire to make use of the iMBA Prepaid Discount Programme in the foreseeable future, but cannot commit to the immediate combined payment, may pre-secure their PDP status on the Prepaid Discount Programme. This enables the student to make use of the Prepaid Discount Programme (PDP) at a later stage, even if the quota for the academic year has been filled. 

Students who have pre-secured their PDP status or have made a iMBA PDP Combo payment are automatically exempted from the EduVisa/Arden Admission Application Fee (£100) payable during the MBA Top-Up (MBA Research Thesis) application process and will also be fast=tracked during the EduVisa/Arden Admission Process. This circumvents the intensive and time-consuming university admission process that students, who have not completed the L7Dip.Man via EduVisa, usually experience. It also does away with the need to provide proof of an IELTS or similar English language verification during the L7PGDip.Man and MBA Top-Up registration.

The once-off fee to register for the Prepaid Discount Programme (PDP) amounts to £195 and qualifies the student to register on the Prepaid Fixed Discount Programme (FDP) for registration at a later stage not exceeding 6 months. 

The EduVisa Graduate School of Management Pay-and-Study Programme allows students to register with a deposit of 30% followed by monthly payments based on the number of modular units that make up the specific course. Please visit the relevant course webpage for more information. The Pay-&-Study Programme is based on the payment of a deposit equal to three monthly payments followed by a number of monthly instalments relevant to the specific programme. 

EduVisa Graduate School of Management offers its students the opportunity to generate a referral income simply by assisting new students to register on the Accelerated iMBA Degree Programme in order to further alleviate the cost of studies towards an MBA Degree. Simply register for the EduVisa Certificate in Referral Marketing (L3Cert.Man) or Diploma in Higher Education Access (L3Dip.HEA) which automatically activates the Independent Referral Affiliate (IRA) status as well as a unique Referral Link that can be used to recruit new students via electronic or social media marketing (WhatsApp, Facebook etc.). 

It is tailor-made for the new IT-driven era where the Referral Affiliate (the existing student) will engage consumers (potential students, friends, and family) through a variety of online distribution models including websites, social media, search, email, mobile apps, offline marketing and more. Students get to experience the benefits of working for themselves, an unlimited income (Multi-currency based) and educational products required by millions at a level of unmatched affordability administered via an AI-automated university learner system that is based on an internationally accredited qualification framework (UK-Ofqual) and accepted by universities, business schools and employers the world over. Referral commission is automatically generated by the EduVisa Referral Affiliate System every time a student uses the unique referral link to register for a course or academic programme. The following referral commissions are generated whenever the unique referral link is used for registration purposes: 

REFERRAL COMMISSION GENERATING PROGRAMMES	PERCENTAGE
Management Skills Programme	10%
