How to pay your fees

As soon as you have accepted your offer you can pay your tuition fees. Before you start you should have ready:

• Your student ID
• Your offer letter telling you your course fees
• A credit or debit card if you’re using one.

Paying your fees

You can pay your fees using the University of Brighton’s payment service powered by our partner Flywire. Flywire allows you, your parents or sponsors to pay your student fees in the currency of your choice in a simple and secure way.

• Convenient payment options from over 240 countries in more than 130 currencies
• Choose from a variety of payment methods including bank transfers, credit cards, e-wallets and more
• Avoid bank fees and extra charges
• Be guaranteed the best exchange rate when making a payment using Flywire. If you find a better rate within two hours, Flywire will match it
• Track your payment in real-time online and receive email and text alerts every step of the way including confirmation that we have securely received your payment
• 24/7 multilingual support with any questions you have about making your payment from the Flywire team. You can give them a call, send an email or use live chat online.

International student paying your tuition fee deposit

If you are a self-funded international student and you require a UK visa to study with us, you are required to pay a tuition fee deposit. The deposit must be paid before we can issue you with your Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) number which you need in order to apply for your visa.

You can pay your tuition fee deposit online via the University of Brighton. You must pay your deposit before 31 August.

Students whose ability to take up study at Brighton is disrupted as a result of COVID-19 will have their deposits refunded in full if the request to refund is after their CAS has been assigned but before the VISA application has been made.

Paying your fees in instalments

If you are a self-funding student you can pay your fees in six monthly instalments using a credit or debit card starting in October. Please set this up securely online via Student View.

If you have any problem with setting up a monthly instalment plan, please email income@brighton.ac.uk.

Someone else is paying for my fees

If a third party sponsor pays your tuition fees you should complete a sponsor form (pdf).

Once signed, you can email a scanned copy of the sponsor form or sponsor headed-paper letter to fees@brighton.ac.uk. A scanned copy of a financial guarantee is also acceptable.

As a student you remain ultimately responsible for the payment of your tuition fees, including where a sponsorship agreement has been approved (see the Student Contract).

Secure payments

Please do not use public use computer terminals – including the University of Brighton’s pool rooms computers – to enter any data from your credit or debit cards. You should use a safe and private alternative, where you cannot be overlooked, that does not use an open network or a terminal that might have been tampered with to collect cardholder data (like your 16-digit card number or your three-digit security code).

The university will not accept responsibility for any losses incurred related to data transmitted in this way across its public network and by moving on from this page you acknowledge this.
