Overseas online payment for large sum - I plan to pursue graduate studies in the UK in 2021. The tuition fees will come up to 25K pounds which is around 45K SGD. Any advice on the best way to conduct such a large online transaction?

If you can open a bank account in the UK. You should remit the lump sum over using Instarem. 0.25% to 1% of mid-market rate is the transaction fee. Btw mid-market rate is the amount you get when you google exchange rates
