5. Photographs. Please submit a recent passport-size photograph with your application.

Foreign Students: To study in eSwatini you have to apply for a volunteer permit. For those nations that don’t require visa to enter the country, the permit will be submitted when the student is in the country, just make sure that you have all docs required for the DTS staff responsible for the communication.

For those nations that require visa to enter the country, we may not be able to accept you if your forms arrive less than one month before the school. Should the time you have to return your forms be limited, we suggest you fax the forms and post the originals, plus the photograph and application fee.
These applications are only available in English. As we are an international mission, we have found it necessary to restrict all our lectures, information and correspondence to English as it is the most universally understood language.

All of our schools are full-time residential training courses. It is not possible for students to pursue other courses of study or part-time employment while taking a UofN course.

Please send all forms or address inquiries to:

GENERAL INFORMATION
1. We desire to know the Lord Jesus and grow in relationship with Him.
2. As a unique base we are excited about culture and the fulfilling of the great commission. We believe that God has placed a part of himself in every culture and that each people group has its own unique way of sharing the gospel.
3. We are an international base. We believe that God has created all nations, and that each
culture carries a part of the picture of what God is like. When the nations come together we get to see a more accurate picture of God’s character.
4. We believe that God has placed a calling on each person’s life and that this calling can be known! We desire to see individuals discover their God given identity and destiny, as they grow closer to the Lord Jesus and learn to hear his guiding voice.
5. We are a training base. Our goal is to see people equipped and mobilized into world missions. We run Discipleship Training Schools (DTS) through which students learn about the character and nature of God.
6. We love eSwatini and believe that it is time for the Swazi to not just respond to the gospel for salvation, but to take their rightful place in world missions.
7. We believe in unity and desire to impact our community and other local ministries through partnership and sharing of our time and resources. Simunye!

FINANCIAL POLICY

YOUTH WITH A MISSION is an international, non-profit, faith ministry and is not underwritten by any group, church or denomination. The school programs are not subsidized from outside sources and the costs are met entirely by the students' fees although reliance is placed on God to provide the equipment and property needed to back such a program.
You will be expected to provide your fees as listed below.
As you do the possible - use savings, earn money, sell things you do not need - God will do the impossible as you trust and have faith in Him. Where God guides, He also provides.
Students are advised that they are required to vacate YWAM accommodation on the day the school ends.
THE COSTS: We have a category system in operation on this campus which aims to enable all students, regardless of social or economic backgrounds to attend our training programs. Please refer to the chart to see your category and corresponding fees.
We believe that this fee scale reflects an understanding of a loving God who is fully committed to justice and meeting people within the reality of their circumstances. The reality in the world is that not all currencies have equal value, yet our desire is to see people from all over the world receive quality training.
In order to do this, we have scaled the fees so that category B is the average fee required to train students in Swaziland.
Category A is still cheaper than anywhere in the first world, yet is affords us the ability to subsidize third world students, thereby empowering them to participate in a high standard school without any compromising necessary. We believe that this financial scale is an attempt to act justly according to an internationally recognized non-arbitrary standard.

Please note:
The school fees are for a three-month semester and include accommodation, meals and tuition.

Costs for the outreach (IDS 702), after the lecture phase (IDS 701), are in addition to the school fees. They are determined during the lecture phase, and are dependent on the location of outreach. (The fees for OUTREACH can be anything from R10.000,00 to R12.000,00.) Please prepare for these costs in advance, as there is limited time during the first phase (3 months) of the school to raise this money.
The DTS Outreach (IDS 702) is required for successful completion of the DTS (IDS 701/702)

Other costs:
An airport/station collection fee: (Johannesburg) E 600,00 / King Mswati III Airport – Mbabane E 400,00)

PAYMENT - Fees must be paid in full on the registration day for each school, unless a prior written arrangement has been made with the Training Director. (In line with the policy of the University of the Nations, students who are unable to meet their financial obligations will not be allowed on any school. Please contact us before you arrive.)

LECTURE FEES:

Lecture Phase (IDS 701) fees (Please note this is subject to change)

A	E18 400,00	All first world nations (e.g., European countries, Northern America, Australia & New Zealand, South Korea
B	E11 500,00	All second world nations (e.g., South Africa, Botswana, South America)
C	E9 200,00	C All developing nations (e.g., African Nations)
