Fees
Maharishi Institute collects fees to be transmitted to its' partner educational institutions that provide the distance education programmes and qualifications. In addition the Institute charges a fee for the food, materials, technology access support it provides. Students pay a R200 per month materials fee to cover the cost of lunch, books, notes and materials, internet usage, trips to Ezemvelo, and other costs. Foundation Fees begin at R14 000 and increase by year of study.
The majority of students are on financial aid support programs, where up to 100% of fees can be covered by non-collateral based student loans. Through the experiential learning Stepping Stones program, financial-aid students will be able to repay these loans over time while they are studying, with any remainder to be paid interest-free after they complete their studies.
Because of the relationships and agreements that Maharishi Institute has with its educational partners, students pay an absolute fraction of what they would pay studying through these institutions normally. For example, Regenesys Business School provides greatly discounted fees, and the Maharishi University of Management fees per annum are reduced to less than 10% of their normal level. Normally students would pay $24 000, nearly R150 000 per year, on campus in the USA. For the 4-year Bachelors Degree in Management on campus students would pay $96,000, and including the MBA students would pay $144,000, over R1million. This makes study via distance education far more affordable while still providing the same ultimate degree qualification.
In this manner every student is given the opportunity to access a world-class education. This programme is enriched through doing live work for real companies and is therefore of crucial value in preparing individuals for the workplace, helping ensure that they are able to find employment or start their own business through the entrepreneurship training which the Institute provides.
