International undergraduate fees

Students who normally live outside of the EU usually pay international tuition fees.

The tuition fee you pay is based on your fee status and the course you study. Your fee status is assessed based on criteria published by the UK government. We may need to confirm your fee status during the application process.

We assess all cases against the same criteria. You can find information about fee status for higher education on the UKCISA website.

Some courses charge different fees and you should confirm the tuition fee for the course you are applying for by using our course finder.

Fees for international students at partner colleges

Fees for international students studying at the university's partner colleges are set by the colleges, not the university. You should therefore contact your partner college for information on course fees.

Paying your international tuition fee deposit

If you are a self-funded international student from a country outside of the European Economic Area (EEA), after you have applied and been offered a place on a course, you will need to pay a tuition fee deposit of £1,500 before we can issue you with a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) number. You need a CAS number in order to make your visa application.

If you are starting a course with us in September 2021 you must provide us with your tuition fee deposit by 31 August 2021.

You can pay your tuition fee deposit online or by using the bank transfer service partnered with Western Union, which allows you to pay in your local currency.

You don't need to pay the tuition fee deposit if:

  • you are fully sponsored by the UK government, your home government ministry, the British Council or any international organisation, international company or university
  • you do not require sponsorship under the student visa route i.e. a CAS to study in the UK
  • you are in receipt of a US Federal loan
  • you are a University of Brighton pre-sessional student
  • you are a University of Brighton alumnus
  • you are a University of Brighton International College alumnus.

Students whose ability to take up study at Brighton is disrupted as a result of COVID-19 will have their deposits refunded in full.

For further details, please see our tuition fee deposit refund policy.

Paying the rest of your tuition fees

Tuition fees are payable from the first day of your course. You can pay them online or by bank transfer, and can choose to pay your fees in up to six instalments.

If you are not paying your own fees, you must produce a letter when you arrive at the university confirming that your fees will be paid by your government, the British Council, an international organisation, your employer or another sponsor. We cannot complete your enrolment until we have seen this letter.

How to pay your fees

 

What is included in the fees?

Mandatory requirements for your course are covered by the tuition fees. These include things such as health or criminal record checks, specialist materials and mandatory field trips.

Optional field trips, accommodation and course materials are not included in the tuition fees and you will need to pay for these yourself. Please contact the school that delivers your course about possible extra costs before you apply.
