UK, EU and offshore students - paying your fees

Information for postgraduate students

If you wish to pay in instalment you are required to pay a minimum of 50% of the total cost either before registration or at registration (please note the final payment date for the 50% is the 15 October). The remaining 50% can be paid in 2 further instalments, 25% by 1 December 2023 and the remaining 25% by 1 February 2024.

Please see below an example of payment:

• If a student's deposit amount is £5,500 and their total tuition fees is £14,000 they need to have paid 50% of their fees minus any deposit already paid by registration.
• Therefore, in addition to their £5,500 deposit, they will need to pay £1,500 to reach £7,000 (50% of total tuition fees) before or at registration.

Please note: If the minimum initial 50% payment has not been paid by the end of registration you are at risk of being withdrawn.

Information for undergraduate students

Any remaining payments after the deposit will be split equally over three or six months with payment collected on the first of each month. The maximum number of instalments is six months.

Setting up a direct debit

You can set the direct debit up through your registration portal or by completing a direct debit. RCP can be set-up using our secure RCP payment service.

The mandates are blank, so the value will show as zero. Once completed, you will receive a confirmation email. Once your invoice has been raised (after you have completed registration) you will receive an email confirming the payment dates and amounts. For undergraduate students the direct debit or RCP will default to the six-month plan, so if you wish to opt for the three-month plan, please let us know.

Postgraduate finance

If you’re receiving postgraduate student finance you can set up a direct debit up either through your myUWE portal or our online payment facility. You can then send in your student finance loan approval and payment schedule by emailing creditcontrol@uwe.ac.uk so that your payment schedule can be set in accordance with your loan payments.

You can pay the remaining balance of your tuition fees (after paying your deposit) by direct debit (only available from UK bank account) or Recurring Card Payment (RCP).

Please visit our Ways to Pay page for more information

Undergraduate students can pay via the 'Registration' tab in myUWE.

If you believe your invoice amount is wrong or a scholarship/discount hasn’t been applied you will need to contact the Student Administration Team for your college.

• Faculty of Business and Law at fbl.sat@uwe.ac.uk
• Faculty of Environment and Technology at fet.sat@uwe.ac.uk
• Faculty of Health and Applied Sciences at has.sat@uwe.ac.uk
• Faculty of Arts, Creative Industries and Education at ace.sat@uwe.ac.uk

If your invoice is for the full amount but you have paid a deposit there is no need to do anything. The invoice is for the full amount of the fees as this is what your course costs, however, you will only be expected to pay the remaining balance, and this will be reflected on your myUWE portal.

In your myUWE portal, payments tab, you can select “pay on account” which will allow you to pay any amount that you require. This will then be allocated as a credit to your account and we will match it to your invoice accordingly once it has been raised. Please also send an email to our Credit Control department explaining what the payment is for and to ensure they don’t issue a refund on it. Their email is creditcontrol@uwe.ac.uk.

Unfortunately, we can only provide a tuition fee receipt once the tuition fee has been paid in full, as we do not have the capacity to provide receipts for individual payments. If the payment was made online, the person who made the payment will have received an automatic receipt via email. Direct debit payments will show on your bank account as evidence of payment.

Your accommodation deposit should have been made online, in which case you (or the person making the payment) will have received an automatic receipt via email. Unfortunately, we do not have the capacity to provide a receipt in any other format.
