International Tuition Fee Deposit

All international students are required to pay a deposit before the University will issue a CAS (Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies).

Students will not be issued a CAS until this deposit has been received.

The deposit, and how to pay, will be clearly shown on your offer from the University.

Tuition fee deposits are non-refundable. Please see the Payment of University Fees Regulations for details of exceptions via our Policies and Regulations page.
