Questions
Applying and studying
Answers to the questions that come up most often before enrollment.
How do I apply to ACLAS?
Applications are submitted through the ACLAS campus at aclas.college. You choose your program, submit the application, receive an acceptance letter, complete payment, and are then registered for your courses. No entrance examination is required.
What are the entry requirements?
Requirements differ by level. The BBA and BSCS ask for a high school diploma or equivalent — the BSCS additionally expects high-school-level mathematics and a computer able to run Python, compilers and lightweight virtual machines. The MBA and MCS require a bachelor's degree or equivalent. The DBA requires a master's degree, with no exceptions. All programs require proficiency in English.
When do I have to pay?
Tuition must be paid before enrollment. New students complete payment after receiving their acceptance letter and before course registration. For installment plans, a USD 2 processing fee applies to each installment.
How long until I get access to my courses?
PayPal and credit card payments are confirmed instantly and course access is activated immediately. PayMyTuition, Western Union, USDT, Geoswift and Xendit take one to three business days because of manual verification. In general, course access is granted within three to five business days of payment being received and verified.
Which payment methods do you accept?
PayMyTuition, PayPal, credit and debit cards, USDT and other cryptocurrencies, WeChat Pay, Alipay and UnionPay, Xendit, Western Union, and bank transfer by SWIFT or US wire and ACH. A 6% processing fee applies to some gateways — Wintopay, PayPal, Geoswift and Xendit — but not to PayMyTuition, USDT, debit and credit cards, or Western Union.
What is your refund policy?
ACLAS publishes a refund and cancellation policy covering cooling-off periods, installments, document fees and non-refundable scenarios — including dissatisfaction with the college's accreditation status, which is disclosed before enrollment. The policy is available in full on aclas.college.
Do you offer installments?
Yes, in two or four installments, with a USD 2 processing fee per installment. For example, the USD 89 MBA can be paid as four installments of $10, $20, $20 and $39, or as two of $20 and $69.
Is there an application fee?
No application fee is published by ACLAS. The costs are tuition and, where you choose them, optional document and verification services.
