How to Set Up Multiple Tuition Fees

How to Set Up Multiple Tuition Fees

OVERVIEW


This tutorial will show users how to add multiple tuition fees for a specific program instance. A new toggle called Allow Tuition Selection is now available at the Program Instance level, providing users with an option to display a different tuition fee when enrolling a student.

Location in SMS: Programs > Program Instance > Financial > Program Fees

IMPORTANT
  1. This functionality only works with manual enrolment.
  2. This toggle is only available for Program Instance that has no Contract set. Upon manual enrolment, this requires user to select a Tuition fee.
  3. Only one tuition fee can be set as Default. The Default Tuition Fee will be used for External Enrolments as there is no selection of Tuition Fees even when Allow Tuition Selection is enabled.
  4. When enabled, a new dropdown called "Set Tuition Fee As" becomes available when adding a new Tuition fee under Program Fees. Users can set the tuition fee as Default or Optional.
  5. If Allow Tuition Selection is enabled in the Program instance > Financial, users will be required to select a Tuition Fee to be paid. The Total will adjust accordingly.
  6. If Allow Tuition Selection is disabled, there will be no need to select a tuition fee as all fees will need to be paid.
