You need to pay your tuition fees and other additional programme costs in full on or before matriculation, and at the start of each new session thereafter.

If you are studying on a part-time intermittent basis then you will be invoiced separately for each course. We refer to this as “invoiced at course level”. This means your course fees are due in full on or before matriculation, and at the start of each new course thereafter.

Annual tuition fee Increases

Making arrangements to pay your fees is part of the matriculation process to become a student at the University.

The Income Section of the Finance Department is responsible for collecting student academic fees, including tuition fees, course fees, additional programme costs, and other related charges. We offer various payment methods and options for paying student fees.

Your Instutute may also charge other fees.

We offer a 10% discount on postgraduate tuition fees for alumni who have graduated with an undergraduate degree from the University.

We also offer a 10% discount on postgraduate tuition fees for students who have previously matriculated on a "Visiting Programme" as an undergraduate student and completed a minimum of one semester of study at the University.

The Scholarship and Student Funding site provides a list of programmes not covered by the discount scheme.

Other student administration fees, such as matriculation and examination fees, may also apply.

You must pay your fees in full at matriculation or within 30 days of the invoice date (whichever comes first).

In most cases, we can arrange for you to pay your tuition fees in instalments. Other fee types must be paid in full.

You can find out more about the payment options for student academic fees on the Finance website.

You may be eligible to have your tuition fees paid by a sponsor or funded by financial support.
