6. The tuition fee amount to be paid by students who, in order to complete their dissertation or
thesis, renew their enrollment in the last year of an integrated Master's degree solely for the
course unit "Dissertation", "Traineeship" or "Project" is proportional to the number of months
elapsed until the delivery of the respective dissertation or thesis, according to the
corresponding number of three-month terms.
7. In case an enrollment extending beyond the statutory deadline is authorised where one or
more instalments of the tuition payment plans defined in the previous items have not been
paid, the amount(s) of the overdue instalment(s) shall be transferred to the instalment due
immediately after the tuition invoice date, thus preventing students from starting off with an
irregular situation on the Academic Portal and e-learning platform.
8. Tuition fee payments after the established deadlines shall bear interest at the legal rate, and
any administrative actions will be suspended, such as registration in the examination periods
and the issuance of certificates, amongst others.
9. The Academic Services will conveniently disclose the payment means as well as the
respective locations.
