You can find information about the tuition fees for postgraduate research degrees in our postgraduate research fees and funding section.

International students need to pay a non-refundable* deposit to secure their place. For January 2025 entry, the deposit amount is £5,000. You will need to pay your deposit by the date stated in your offer letter. The remainder of your fee will be payable on registration/enrolment. We are unable to release a CAS until the deposit of £5,000 is fully received and confirmed by our Finance Department, which can take up to 10 working days. 

*There are two exceptions to the non-refundable rule on the deposit:

• You fail to meet the academic or English requirements of your offer
• You are refused a visa to enter the UK, provided the reason for the refusal is not a fraudulent application. 

In addition, you will be eligible for a deposit refund if you are unable to physically commence study at ÃÛÌÒAV due to travel restrictions imposed either by the UK Government or the government in the country from which you are travelling to ÃÛÌÒAV. If requested by us, you will be required to provide evidence of the relevant government’s travel restrictions to show you were unable to travel to ÃÛÌÒAV in time to start your course.

If you’re concerned about this fee, please speak to our International Admissions team who may be able to extend the deadline for you to pay any required deposit and secure your place. We may not be able to offer an extension if a course has very limited remaining places.

Paying your fees and discounts

There are various ways you can pay your fees, if they are not being covered by a scholarship, and we also offer certain discounts on the cost of postgraduate study.

The university reviews its fees and fees policy annually. View our Fees Policy for more information.
