Terms and Conditions

When you complete your (re-)enrolment with the university, you agree to pay your fees in line with our payment terms and must ensure you have the funds you need to pay for your study.

It is your responsibility as the student to ensure your fees are paid in line with the University payment terms, even if your fees are being paid by a third party (family member for example).

If you do not pay your fees in line with the university payment terms, sanctions will be applied to your account:

  • Removal of your IT and Library access
  • Suspension of your studies within the academic session 
  • You will not be permitted to progress or re-enrol on the next stage of your studies
  • You will not be permitted to attend your graduation ceremony or receive your award (transcript / certificate)

Fee debt will also be referred to debt collection agencies for collection and legal action taken where the debt remains unpaid.  You will also be responsible for any additional collection / legal costs charged due to these referrals.

Help and Guidance

If there is an unexpected change to your financial circumstances during your study, outside of your control, and you can no longer pay your fees on time, you must contact the Credit Control team before your payment is due, and provide information and evidence of your unexpected financial difficulties to the team. 

The information you provide will be used to review your circumstances and your ability to complete your fee payments following the change in your financial circumstances.  It is important to provide as much information as possible to allow the team to review your account and confirm if extended payment terms can be approved to help with your remaining fee payments.

Additional help and guidance is also available both in and out of term time, from the following teams:
