The UWI GLOBAL CAmpus
Payment Procedure Guidebook 2023-2024
Welcome to SUMMER
2023-2024!
Greetings to all new, continuing and returning students!
As you know, we are a predominantly virtual campus and so our courses are delivered by way of the Learning Exchange. During the registration period from May 15 - June 2, 2024, access to the Learning Exchange will be granted once you have fulfilled one of the following:
- fees are paid in full,
- the necessary arrangement for a Payment Plan is made, or
- Scholarship/Sponsorship document is provided. You will see the option to upload your scholarship/sponsorship document on your Student Portal at Step 4 of the Registration and Funding map. If your fees are not covered by a full scholarship, you will need to select one of the above options for payment of the remaining amounts.
This guidebook provides you with all the information you need to successfully register and access your courses.
Best wishes for a successful semester!
Greetings Pelicans!
