One of the questions many prospective students ask is, “How can I manage the cost of training while balancing work, family, and other commitments?”
At the ICTCM, we understand that students come from a wide range of backgrounds and financial circumstances. That’s why we offer several fee payment options designed to make professional training in TCM Acupuncture as accessible as possible.
Students who are in a position to pay their annual fees in full before the specified date can benefit from a discounted rate. For those who prefer to spread the cost over the academic year, a number of flexible instalment plans are available.
Depending on your circumstances, you can choose to pay your fees in:
- Two equal instalments during the academic year, or
- Four equal instalments spread across the year
These options allow many students to budget more comfortably while pursuing their professional training.
Planning to Apply for the October Intake?
If you are considering joining this year’s Acupuncture programme, which begins in October, and would like to avail of the four-instalment payment option, it is important to apply early.
Because the four-payment plan is not available to late applicants, we recommend submitting your application by the end of July to ensure this option remains available to you.
Are There Any Additional Costs?
One of the advantages of studying at the ICTCM is that there are relatively few additional expenses beyond the course fees.
Students should budget for:
- One or two recommended textbooks each year
- Examination fees at the end of the second and third years
- Any resit fees, should a student need to retake an examination
Towards the end of the second year, students will also purchase their own clinic equipment. This equipment is used during clinical training at the college and will continue to serve you after graduation as you establish your own professional practice.
