Payment Modes

We encourage parents to pay school fees in the bank. All students have payment codes through school pay. The codes help parents to deposit money on our school account from the convenience of their phones or from any financial institution like bank, money agents or mobile money/airtel money kiosk.

Procedure for payment using a phone:

MTN:   *165*80# follow instructions.

AIRTEL: *185*62# follow instructions.

Our seminary understands the current financial struggles. It is very difficult to have all the fees at once. We have a payment policy: A parent should be at least half of the fees at the beginning of the term and then complete the whole amount at visitation day. Visitation day is usually in the middle of the term.
