We do not charge any application fees. You will not need to pay us until you are sent an Offer of Place, which is also your invoice for your tuition fees.

Your main cost will be tuition fees. Estimated tuition fees are listed on each programme page. Additional costs include the Student Services Fee, insurance, and other course-related expenses. Your Offer of Place will include your invoice for all study-related costs. 

Remember to plan for travel and living expenses, as your study fees do not cover these costs. 

We will invoice you for your fees for the year before you begin study. Fees must be paid in full before you start study.

If you are starting in Semester 2, we will invoice your tuition fees from your start date through to the end of the year. You will need to pay the invoice in full before you begin.

Your payment should be made in full once you have received your Offer of Place.
