The above fees are for the academic year 2013 - 14. Fees are payable for each year of your course and will be subject to an annual increase.

Candidates applying from visa national countries are required to submit an advanced payment, which will then be deducted from the full fee. International students can make their advanced payment by credit or debit card using the University's online payment store.

Please note if you are considering a part-time route that runs over more than one year, the tuition fee stated is for the first year of study. The course fee for the second year may be subject to annual review and will be confirmed shortly.

In cases where an employer or other sponsor takes responsibility for paying fees, some evidence may be required: for example, a purchase order from the sponsor or an official letter on headed paper.

Where fees are paid by a sponsoring company, VAT may be payable on top of the fees quoted.
