The university operates a number of tuition fee discount and rebate schemes that are subject to separate terms and conditions. These can change from year to year and therefore students should not rely on receiving the same tuition fee reduction for each year of study.

Graduates opting to apply for this discount are not eligible for any other University of Brighton postgraduate scholarship for the same course.
