Finance & Student Loans
how payment works
Before starting your degree course, to confirm your place, you pay an initial deposit of £1,000. The rest of your course fee is then divided into equal termly instalments over the full length of your course.
You will be invoiced each term or semester and you have three months, interest-free, to pay. If you want to pay your whole course up front you are welcome to do so. Equally, you can pay termly, or pay the termly invoice in smaller monthly instalments. It’s entirely up to you. The longer your schedule, the less you pay each term.
Through your Flywire account, you can control exactly when and how you pay your fees. You are guaranteed that the correct amount of money in UK pounds will reach us. Flywire offers a wide range of payment options. You are able to compare payment methods and find the one that is the most convenient and the best value for you.

For Scottish applicants, we are currently in the process of applying for SAAS funding and aim to get this available for our September 2024 intake.
You will be invoiced at the beginning of each term (or semester) to coincide with your loan payments, and you will then have 30 days, interest-free, to pay.
We are not currently aware of student loans being available in other parts of the world, including the USA (this includes the GI Bill for veterans). However, we can't stay up to date on every possible funding option for every country in the world, so you may wish to research and see if there are any local arts councils/funds, charities and employer schemes available to you.
