All PG Home students
Postgraduate students holding an approved Postgraduate or Doctoral Loan from Student Finance England will receive the funds from the SLC into their bank account and will therefore need to arrange payment of their fees to the University.
All home postgraduate students will be able to pay their tuition fees in three equal instalments. Payment dates will coincide with maintenance loan dates depending on the course start date. For example, a September 2026 starter must pay their first instalment by 2nd October 2026, their second instalment by 15th January 2027 and their final instalment by 28th April 2027.
If you are eligible to receive the Alumni Discount, this will be allocated to the total fee with your remaining balance split into three equal instalments.
Please note the fees for each year must be paid in full before continuing onto the next year if you are on a multiyear course.
Once you have completed registration at the university, we will contact the Student Loans Company to confirm this and your payment will be released within two-five working days of this confirmation being sent.
Please note that this process will ONLY release payment if you have completed your Declaration to the SLC confirming that you accept the Terms and Conditions of the loan.
