The University of Guyana has clarified speculations regarding the demand for payment of fees by issuing a statement highlighting that tuition payment deadlines have been relaxed amid concerns about COVID-19.

A previous statement was issued by the Registry Division which directs students who are desirous of paying, to utilize various online services. However, the Transitional Management Committee (TMC) of the University of Guyana in a recent email stated, “The note from the Registry mentioned no deadline and should not be read as a demand for payment of fees.”

The university recognizes that during this time, some students may have difficulties paying. Therefore the university has not and is not demanding fees in these circumstances.

There is currently no enforced deadline for payment of fees

Full statement below:

The Transitional Management Committee (TMC) of the University of Guyana advises that UG is not demanding tuition fees from students at this time.

However, due to various queries in the last week, a blanket note was sent by the Registry Division via UG’s internal Students Records Management Systems (SRMS) on May 22, 2020, in response to those queries, explaining what new online procedures are now in place to facilitate payments during this period.

It should be noted that persons still need such documents as transcripts, letters, and so on. In addition, some students are paying fees since all student matters are not uniformed. However, for those who are experiencing difficulty, all deadlines have been relaxed thus far.

The note from the Registry mentioned no deadline and should not be read as a demand for payment of fees.

The TMC wishes to reiterate to students that there is currently no enforced deadline for payment of fees and the University has not and is not demanding fees at this time and in these circumstances.  It is hoped that this clarification brings relief to any student to whom the situation was not clear.

Please also be guided to refer to the University’s HRMIS, SRMS, and official website for further updates and all official notifications.

The University (staff and students) are currently in safe mode, and the administration is working to support students as far as possible during this period.
