What is the 2% discount upon full payment?



For a limited time offer, students/parents are granted a 2% discount on Tuition Fee only (excludes miscellaneous and other fees) if and when they settle their full assessment upon enrollment. This is in special appreciation for the effort to settle in spite of the ongoing pandemic. This however was not included in the Pre-Registration Form computation.

Therefore, if you are going to pay in full upon enrollment, we kindly ask you to compute the discount manually and deduct the resulting amount from the total assessment to be paid

It shall be computed as follows:
Tuition fee x 98%=Discounted Tuition Fee
Discounted Tuition Fee+Misc.&Other Fees=Total Payment







Why are there Miscellaneous Fees and Other Fees during this Pandemic?



  • Starting SY2020, there were no increases in tuition fees implemented by the School. But to fully sustain the quality of Bedan education, we must continue to support our faculty, cover non-teaching expenses, and invest in facilities and online resources to deliver efficiently our curriculum to our students. These activities are funded by Miscellaneous Fees, which were already reduced significantly from the original pre-pandemic fees.
  • Other Fees are used for the specific Academic Unit and government student bodies for their extra-curricular activities.






Is the Non-Refundable Reservation Fee part of the Tuition Fee Payment?



Yes, The Non-Refundable Reservation Fee will form part of the Tuition Fee payment. If full assessment is still paid after paying the Reservation Fee, this overpayment shall be carried over to any subsequent assessment.

During Enrollment Period, the required down payment needs to be settled and shall be computed as follows:

Down payment – Reservation Fee = Remaining Down payment







Why is there convenience/bank charge/service charge in the SBU Payment System?



To provide more efficient services to you, we need to engage the services of a third-party collection facilities, which entails convenience fees and bank charges.

The following are the benefits in using the payments facility for your reference:
