Our academic session consists of two semesters, so typically, you would be in Anchor for approximately ten months per year. However, it is advisable to budget for a eleven-month period to ensure you have enough funds during holidays to cover essential expenses.


• The cost of meals during the academic session will be on a pay-as-you-eat basis.
