No you do not have to pay one year or one semester fee toapply for study visa unless you LOA condition states so.aman singh said:You have to pay 1 semester or 1 year fees + GIC to apply.
All payments made before applying for your student permit are done at your own risk, it does not guaratee your visa will be granted, rather it shows your desperacy for the Visa, if the school didnt state that you should pay in your LOA, then you dont have to pay before you apply, the VO might request that you pay before they issue your visa, if they doubt you have the resources to fund your Education.Can.ott said:if i am applying to university and no condition regarding tuition payment is there can i still pay the fee to have more chances of visa?
Yes if the school gives you a condition that you should pay, then you pay to meet that condition, but if not, show the VO the evidence that you have the money to pay.waikiki said:But there are some schools where it is not necessary to pay beforehand.
