Full-time Postgraduate Taught Students

The date when a student withdraws affects the level of tuition fees which may be refunded, and it may also affect the student loan.  Fee adjustments are calculated with reference to the date of withdrawal from the University, not the last date of attendance, and cannot be actioned if the withdrawal procedure has not been followed correctly.  The table below, demonstrates how the adjustment is calculated.

Part-time Postgraduate Taught Students

Fees for part-time students are calculated by semester.  Further details of the withdrawal and module drop policy for part-time students are outlined in Section 5.4.2 of the Student Finance Framework.

Refunds

A refund of tuition fees may be made if a student withdraws from their programme of study. Refunds are calculated with reference to the date of withdrawal from the University and the fee liability dates as outlined in Table 3 above. 
  
A non-refundable payment of 25% of the calculated fee is due at enrolment. The initial payment is non-refundable unless the applicant or student cancels their contract with the University in accordance with clause 34-36 of the Terms and Conditions for 2026 Entry https://www.qub.ac.uk/Study/TermsandConditions/
