Deadline for third-party payments

UWE Bristol strongly recommends that you do not pay through a third party (this is a payment made by someone other than yourself or parents), however if it is the only way of payment being made this is the deadline for a third party payment being made and received by UWE Bristol.

It is important to note that payments made by a third party require additional checks which could delay your eligibility to join this September and could result in your payment being returned and in some cases returned funds can take long periods to clear depending on how the payment was made.
