What does the SmartApply fee cover?

Your SmartApply fee pays for our assistance service, helping you get your application right, not for the application itself.

It can cover

  • Helping you understand the application process
  • Checking the information you provide for completeness
  • Assisting with supported application forms
  • Guiding you through required documents
  • Assisting with application submission
  • Communicating relevant submission information to you

It does not cover

  • Fees charged by universities or colleges
  • Admission or registration decisions
  • Guaranteed acceptance into any programme
The other part of the equation

University or college fees are separate

Some institutions
Free applications

If an institution charges an application fee, you pay that fee separately, directly to the institution, not to SmartApply.
