Tuition Fees for Foreign Diplomas Don't Be Fooled by Online Schools The annual tuition fees of some foreign online schools reach over one and a half billion tomans, but their degrees are not valued in Iran. The Ministry of Education announced that foreign online schools active in attracting Iranian students do not have permission to operate from this Ministry and their activity in the country's official education system has no legal basis. According to the head of the Center for International Affairs and Schools Abroad, the documents issued by these centers are not reviewed by the Committee for the Evaluation of Foreign Educational Qualifications and may cause problems for students to continue their studies in Iran.
