- Tuition Fee Liability for Student Withdrawals
Full-time Undergraduate and Postgraduate Taught Students
The date when a student withdraws will affect the level of tuition fees which may be refunded. Adjustments to tuition fees are calculated with reference to the date of a student's withdrawal from the University, not the last date of attendance. The table below demonstrates how tuition fees are calculated in respect of a withdrawal;
Withdrawal PolicyAttendance/SLC Liability Point Normal Effective Period Fees due to the University First Liability Date - Completion of Enrolment and Registration (non-refundable unless the student cancels the contract in accordance with the Terms and Conditions for 2022 entry) up to 9 January 2023 25% Second Liability Date 10 January 2023- 16 April 2023 50% Third Liability Date 17 April 2023 onwards 100% Part-time Undergraduate and 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 4.4.2 of the Student Finance Framework.
Postgraduate Research Students
The tuition fee liability for a Postgraduate Research student withdrawal, or a temporary leave of absence, is based on the official date of withdrawal in the academic year, and a refund will be issued, if appropriate. The tuition fee is calculated for a month if a student is deemed to be in attendance on, or after, the 5th of that month.
For further information, please refer to the Student Finance Framework.
