Key terms for you to note
Below we have outlined some key aspects of the agreement between us that we would like to bring to your attention. The points below are all covered within the Terms and Conditions.
Requirement to pay a Registration Fee - this is the fee you pay to register with us for your first academic year. For some programmes, this may be included in a module/course fee as indicated on our website. To progress in your studies, payment of continuing registration fees may be required in subsequent years.
Some fees are non-refundable - where this is the case, it is clearly indicated on our website. Examples include the application fee, and fees charged to consider recognition of prior learning.
Examination centre fees - there is a separate fee payable to sit an examination at your nominated centre. These charges are set by external examination centres and are payable directly to them. Such fees are not included in our costs set out on the website.
London examination centres - there is a set charge for sitting at London examination centres. If you elect a London examination centre, the associated fee is added to the examination entry fee and is directly payable to us. See Examination centres for current fees payable.
Fees for additional tuition and support through external providers - separate fees are payable where you are required or choose to study with external organisations.
Academic integrity - if you are found to have submitted work that is not your own, serious consequences may result, including exclusion from future assessments for awards of the University.
Non-payment of fees to the University - where you owe us money for programme fees, this may have serious consequences, including affecting your progress in your studies.
Evidence of qualifications, references and other documentation - your qualification transcripts and certificates need to be submitted as part of your application. We may also require additional documentation for some programmes.
