Fees

Tuition fees cover all elements of your tuition, registration and examination. If applicable, any additional research expenses will be specified on your formal offer of admission. Full details of the tuition fees for each academic year can be found under theÌýFee scheduleÌýpages of the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Current Students website.

The published fees are only for the first year of study and the fees in subsequent yearsÌýmay increase to reflectÌýÏã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê's increased costs in delivering the programme, such as operational costs, market forces and inflation:Ìýany increase in fees for subsequent years of the programme won'tÌýexceed 5% per year.ÌýYou should make provision for such increases and this is implicit in accepting the offer of a place at Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê.

You must pay at least a thirdÌýof your tuition fee before or at enrolment to be fully enrolled, or provide a letter of sponsorship indicating who should be invoiced for your fee.
