2. Credit terms: students are allowed a minimum of 14 days credit and a maximum of 90 days to pay their bills. The university has five payment options available to students:
   • Early payment: Students who make prompt payment of tuition fees before the standard payment deadline are entitled to 3.5% cash discount.
   • Standard Payment: students who pay their tuition fees in full by the standard payment deadline will have neither a discount nor a surcharge.
   • Two Installment Payments: Students who opt to pay their tuition fees by two installments will be allowed a maximum of 60 days credit, and pay a surcharge of 3% per semester on the amount due for the semester.
   • Three & Four Installment Payment: Students opting for this payment method will be allowed not more than 90 days to pay their fees in full. This payment options attract a surcharge of 6% per semester on the amount due.
3. Penalty for overdue debts/late fee payment: Students who do not meet their payment deadlines will be made to pay a penalty for the late payment of the overdue debt or fees. The following penalties shall apply:
   • Twenty Dollars(US$20.00) per week for late fee payment
   • Total withdrawal of credit privileges if bills are overdue by 45 days or more
   • Withholding of exam results and transcripts, and possible suspension from the university until all financial obligations have been met

   • Demand notice after 45 days of overdue payment.
5. Signing onto the installment agreement: students who cannot make full payment on the invoice due date must sign onto the Ashesi Standard Installment Agreement Plan.
