Financial Policy

Financial Policy

This policy explains how fees are set, billed, paid and accounted for at SDA NMTC, Kwadaso. It exists to protect students and their sponsors, to guarantee transparency, and to ensure the College can sustain the quality of training it is known for. It applies to all students on all programmes.
 

Our Principles

  • Approval — all fees are approved by the Governing Council in line with rates sanctioned by the Ministry of Health. No unapproved charges may be levied by any office or individual.
  • Transparency — every student receives a clear bill for each academic year, and every payment is receipted.
  • Accountability — College funds are managed by the Finance Office and audited in accordance with statutory requirements.
  • Fairness — no student is denied a fair hearing on genuine financial hardship; structured support options are available.

  • The student’s full name and index/application number must be quoted on every payment.
 

Payment Terms & Instalments

  • Fees are due at the start of each academic year and must be settled before registration.
  • A student may apply to the Finance Office to pay in two instalments: at least 60% before registration in the first semester, and the balance before the start of the second semester.
  • A student with outstanding fees beyond the approved terms may not be registered, examined, or issued results and transcripts until settlement.
 

Refunds

  • Fees paid are generally non-refundable once the semester has begun.
  • A student who formally withdraws before the start of the semester may apply for a refund of tuition, less approved administrative charges.
  • Statutory and one-time charges (admission-related fees, indexing) are non-refundable.
 

Sponsorships, Allowances & Support

  • Students eligible for government trainee allowances receive them in accordance with prevailing government policy.
  • Students sponsored by institutions, districts or the Church should submit sponsorship letters to the Finance Office at registration.
  • Needy but brilliant students may be considered for available scholarship and support schemes, including GETFund and Church-linked support, as advertised.
