In my country at the time of admission, schools demand a "donation" which of course one needs to forget after he has made the payment. Admission is not granted if the "demand" is not met. It is an easy way of making extra money. The system is rampant, and education has simply become commercialized. In Qatar, at least the money is recovered by the parents when a seat gets allotted and the SEC is right in their observation that parents apply for admissions at several schools at the same time.
