FINANCIAL POLICY
YOUTH WITH A MISSION is an international, non-profit, faith ministry and is not underwritten by any group, church or denomination. The costs are met by the students’ fees although reliance is placed on God to provide the equipment and property needed to back such a program. You will be expected to provide your fees as listed below.

Please Note: ALL prices are subject to change without prior notice.
PAYMENT PLANS
- Normal plan: 100% on the day of registration.
- Two Installments Plan: 50% on the day of registration and other 50% to be paid on date agreed by School Leader with plan of how funds will be raised.
LATE PAYMENTS
No late payments are allowed for students doing their very first school with YWAM Zomba.
No student will be allowed to stay on a school beyond the 3rd week if no payment is received.
Late payments may be allowed in instances other than the first should satisfactory arrangements be made with the school leader. Late payments may be subject to a 10% penalty.
METHOD OF PAYMENT
Due to the volatility of our Kwacha against most other major currencies this base now works only in USD. We are however in a position to take foreign currency and bank this and credit you with its value on the day we do the transaction.
SCHOLARSHIPS
As our prices are among the lowest, there can be no further reduction on the fees. Since YWAM is an international, interdenominational, multilingual, and multiracial organization, the fee schedule takes all of the above factors into consideration in order to make university level education accessible to applicants meeting the requirements for admission
NB: Should a student not complete a school the international refund policy on page 29 of the University of the Nations catalogue, 2002-2004 will be applied to the student’s refund claim.
