Pay in instalments

Home students (on campus)

Undergraduate

Undergraduate students whose fees will be initially funded by a tuition fee loan provided by the Student Loan Company (SLC) will have their fees collected from the SLC as per their loan agreement. For self-funding students on courses with a duration of one academic year or more, the University operates two options for payment of your annual tuition fees:

  • Option 1: Payment in full by the invoice due date
  • Option 2: Payment in three equal instalments

Three equal instalments:

Postgraduate

Dates for the postgraduate instalment option will be agreed in line with the postgraduate loan payment dates set by the SLC. If the instalment payment plan dates differ from your SLC payment schedule, then instalment dates may be amended to coincide with the SLC loan payment dates.

For courses with a duration of less than one academic year or for students who have a financial sponsor, payment in full is required by the due date on the invoice.


International students (on campus)

All new self-funded international students must pay a deposit of at least £4,000 before a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies number (CAS) is issued. The requirement for payment of a deposit is detailed in all conditional offer letters. If you are applying for a six-month International Foundation course or a pre-sessional English course the University requires full fees in advance of enrolment.

Where a student has been awarded a scholarship which does not cover the tuition fee in full the deposit can be restricted to the value of the balance owing.

The University operates three options for payment of the tuition fees for new and continuing international students re-enrolling onto subsequent academic years of their course:

  • Option 1: Payment in full by the invoice due date
  • Option 2: Payment in three equal instalments (invoice total less deposit paid where applicable)
  • Option 3: Payment in five equal instalments (invoice total less deposit paid where applicable)

Three equal instalments:
