Important:
Remember to select ‘Pay offline’ at the end. DO NOT click “Pay Now”. The test fee should be paid to the University afterwards (OUS will send email to students with payment link and consent form after vetting applicants’ eligibility) and so you do not have to pay to IDP through this system. Your data will be erased completely if you don’t do that.
