Postgraduate tuition fees

The tuition fees you’ll pay depend on:

• the course you are doing
• where you normally live — fees paid by students resident in England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and the Channel Islands differ from tuition fees for international students
• whether you are studying part-time or full-time. Part-time fees depend on how many units you take each academic year and how many credits they’re worth
• whether specialist facilities or resources are needed

Tuition fees will stay the same for each year of your course, providing you complete it in the agreed timeframe.

Fees are listed on the course pages. To check how much you’ll have to pay, find your course in our A-Z course listing.

How to pay your postgraduate tuition fees

There are three ways to pay:

• fund the course yourself
• take out a postgraduate loan
• get a sponsor or employer to pay

For advice about scholarships, our alumni discount and available bursaries and grants, check out how to fund your postgraduate course.

Fund the course yourself

If you pay your own tuition fees, you can either:

• pay in full before or at enrolment
• or agree to an instalment plan

Paying in full

If you are paying in full:

• At enrolment you will be directed to our payment partner Flywire to make a full fee payment. There is no need to contact the University, Flywire will guide you through the process. 

Paying in instalments

As a UK student you do not need to pay a tuition fee deposit. 

Your tuition fees can be paid in three instalments. View the exact payment dates. 

At enrolment, you can choose whether to pay by: 

• automatic credit or debit card payments

• Direct Debit 

Take out a loan 

If you’ve applied for a loan in Northern Ireland or Scotland, your loan payments are sent directly to us. 

If you’ve applied for a postgraduate loan in England or Wales, the loan is paid directly to your bank account. You’ll be asked to set up an automatic card payment when you create your instalment plan to pay your fees to the University. 

You’ll get a confirmation letter and invoice from Student Finance indicating your loan payment dates. 

Employer or sponsor payment 

If your tuition fees are being paid by an employer or other sponsor, they must email [email protected] to confirm they will pay before you can enrol. For more information on this please visit our employer/sponsor funding webpage.
