Below are the tips to note before and after making Payments to the University of Pretoria. These may be useful for students who want to make transactions.
9 Tips Before and After making Payments
- Always
quote your student number (EMPLID) when making payments.
- Allow
at least five working days for processing by your bank and retain the
proof of payment (deposit slip).
- Do not
email your deposit slip to UP, unless specifically requested to do so.
Emailing the deposit slip to UP will NOT reduce processing time at the
University and will NOT allow same day services, especially during
registration.
- No
payment arrangements can be made for the registration fee or residence
reservation fee.
- Official
UP Cashier payments will be activated on the same day.
- No
cash payments for tuition fees will be allowed on the Hillcrest campus
during registration (including initial payments).
- EFT
payments will not be available on the same day. Not even cash
deposits.
- For
the ABSA on-line banking page, click here for
help on setting up first time on-line banking. Search with ‘UNI’ as
beneficiary and choose ‘students’ option. This will reflect UP’s bank
account number 214 000 0054 when making a payment and will allow you
to use your student number as reference.
- Communication
from Absa states that as of 1 May 2018, manually entered transactions on a
point of sale device (card machine) will no longer be permitted i.e.
payments will not be processed unless a card is presented for payment.
International payments
International payments can be made using a credit card (provided you have 3D
one-time pin security in place with your own bank) on the university website,
or by doing a SWIFT transfer from your bank in your own country.
Please use the correct university bank account for the
various international transactions.
