Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>The Vice Chancellor of the University of Juba has reduced the tuition fees for students on private admission by 50 percent from the previous 100 percent increment.<\/p>\n

Professor John Akec announces that medical students will only pay 300 dollars instead of 600 dollars.<\/p>\n

From other private colleges, the tuition has been reduced from 400 dollars to 200 dollars for the whole year.<\/p>\n

However, Professor Akec clarifies the tuition fees have been maintained for general admission, postgraduate programs, evening classes, and first-year students.<\/p>\n

Other colleges that will still pay the 100 percent increment are the Schools of Education, Mathematics, Music, Arts, and Drama.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe decided that the best fee had to be deducted by fifty percent. We did this in 2019 when we raised the fees eventually and reached a compromise of 50%, which means you meet in a middle way,\u201d Akec told Eye Radio.<\/p>\n

\u201cA medical student second year up to six years was supposed to pay $600 plus the development fees but now they are going to pay $300 or the equivalent.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMost of our colleges like Agriculture are paying 400 dollars, we are slashing that down to $200 plus development fees to get your education good.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Vice-Chancellor further said the development fee will remain the same, with a 37 percent reduction due to the fundraising of last year.<\/p>\n

In November last year, the university raised more than one million US dollars during the fundraising organized by Vice Chancellor Akec in Juba.<\/p>\n
