The Director’s answer regarding the MA tuition fee: ''Since many have asked about our Master programme in Muslim cultures at the Aga Khan University Institute for the study of Muslim Civilisations (see posting below) on Messenger, I answer here. There is a tuition fee for the academic year of 2019/20120 of £11,710. Through our financial assistance programme, the AKU ensures that no individual is denied entry because of the inability to pay tuition, living expenses and other costs. Assistance will be provided through loans or scholarships to supplement personal resources. More info about this is in the Prospectus 2019''.
