FI Magazine cover: How to enrol at FI from anywhere in the world (2026 step-by-step guide)

Wherever you live – the Philippines, the Middle East, Europe or elsewhere – you enrol at Filipino Institute online, in one account called My FI.

Step 1: Create My FI

One secure account for you and your family. Verify your email once.

Step 2: Add yourself or your child

Parents add each learner; children later sign in with their own Learner ID and PIN.

Step 3: Choose the programme and mode

  • K–12 (Nursery to Grade 12): Self-Paced homeschool, or Live Online classes (Middle East schedule now; Philippines from June 2027).
  • Professional Diplomas (141): Self-Paced ₱8,500, Group Live ₱17,000 (16 weeks), VIP 1:1 ₱51,000.
  • Short Courses (48): Self-Paced ₱4,000, Live Online ₱8,000 on selected courses.
  • Tutorials: from ₱399/hour by level – pay only after the tutor and schedule are confirmed.

Step 4: Review the exact fee, then pay

You see the fee before paying. Pay only to the official FI company account shown in My FI or on the Fees page, and keep your proof.

Step 5: Start learning

After FI Finance verifies your payment, your access opens in My FI with your receipt. Requirements (documents) can be completed within 30 days after activation.

Safe payment rules

  • Never pay to a personal account, and never pay twice – if something looks wrong, ask us to review the same payment.
  • Verified payments are not refunded in cash; approved adjustments become FI Credit (see the payment policy).
  • Third-party costs (embassy, courier and similar) are separate.
