Fees and Payment

In brief: Fees and payment information for the Islamic Institute of Advanced Research: written fee schedule, payment instructions and refund terms provided before enrolment.

As a religious exempt institution and a not-for-profit NGO for religious education, we keep our fees substantially lower than those typically charged by for-profit secular institutions. Fees depend on the programme level and your prior-learning assessment. We do not publish a price list that may be out of date; instead we send a written fee schedule with your assessment.

What you will receive before paying

• The programme fee and what it covers
• Available payment arrangements
• Terms for withdrawal and refunds
• Any additional costs (for example, document handling or printed certificates)

Financial aid

Financial aid is available to eligible candidates on the basis of need and merit. Ask us in writing when you request your fee schedule.

Why e-learning?

Although our physical location is in Phoenix, Arizona, we offer e-learning. The vast majority of our students are working adults, have families, or are studying other secular degree programmes, so we offer a flexible e-learning platform that lets them take up Islamic religious education or the Sufi path alongside their other commitments.
