INCLUSIVE STUDY FEES

Many MBA study programmes charge students additional fees for such items as: despatch of study
materials and communications; annual re-registration; attendance at seminars; examination centre arrangements; meals and accommodation for compulsory residential study periods and so on.
Several of the above MBA study programmes involve a requirement to attend residential periods of study in the UK. The MBA study programmes delivered by PDE Ltd are exclusively Distance Learning.
