If you’re not applying for a fully funded PhD, then you’ll need to be sure you are able to pay the fees for your chosen degree or have secured funding to cover those fees.
Fees are payable in advance at the start of every year of study and you’ll need to pay fees for each year or part year of your standard period of study. If you submit your thesis after the standard period of study, then you will need to pay ‘writing up fees’ for each additional year until submission.
Fees can be paid by credit or debit card, bank transfer or by cheque.
What's next?
After you've submitted your application, the postgraduate admissions team will send it to the appropriate school for consideration. Once the school has made a decision, the admissions team will email you to let you know whether you have been selected for interview. We aim to provide an initial response within seven weeks, so long as your application is completed correctly.
If your application is incorrect or incomplete, then we’ll need to return it to you for additional information, which will lengthen the time it takes to process. Please also be aware that applications from students requiring visas can take an additional two weeks to process.
