Some British universities require the accepted monks to pay a certain fee within a specified period of time (some "booking fees" are as high as half of the tuition fees), and only paying the "booking fees" will be regarded as confirmation of admission. This fee is the so-called "reservation fee".
Report as scheduled, and the "reservation fee" paid will offset the tuition fee; If you fail to report on time, the "reservation fee" will not be refunded. The school set up an "appointment fee" to avoid the situation that many students refused to go with an offer, which is also a means of grabbing students. After all, students will feel distressed when they pay a lot of money.
After receiving the news that the school requires to pay the "reservation fee", students can try to communicate with the relevant person in charge of the institution to see if they can postpone the payment before the payment deadline. PS: Generally, deferred payment will not exceed 2 weeks.
At the same time, try to urge those schools that have not yet offered, and understand the probability that they can get the offer or the time when they will get the results. If you don't know when to send the offer from your favorite school, and the deposit here is delivered at the last minute, you must weigh your chances of being admitted to your favorite school.
If the amount of the "booking fee" is affordable, you can pay the "booking fee" with this school as a guarantee, and then wait for news from other institutions.
