Mandatory Tuition Fee Deposits for Postgraduate Taught Courses

If you have met all the course entry requirements and you have received an unconditional offer of a place to study on a postgraduate taught degree, you should note that we require applicants to pay a total deposit* of £2,500 towards their tuition fees, before a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) for visa/immigration purposes can be issued.  Please ensure that you have provided all the necessary documentation.

* Applicants for postgraduate taught programmes offered by the Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences, and some courses in the Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences and the Faculty of Medicine, Health and Life Sciences will be required to pay a deposit (of either £400 or £1000) to secure a place on the course, and this will be included as a formal condition of your offer - please see section above.  The course deposit must be paid by the date specified in the offer letter, otherwise the application will be withdrawn.

CAS details will not be issued earlier than six months before the start of your degree programme.

After you pay a deposit towards your fees, you will be issued with a receipt which you should present the receipt with your documents when you apply for your student entry visa to the UK. This information will also be included in your CAS Statement – see leaflet ‘Studying at Queen’s: Study Visa Options’ enclosed with your offer letter.
