Early payment

Other eligibility requirements

This award entitles fee-paying students to a discount of 5% if fees are over £5,000 and the fees are paid in full prior to the first teaching date of the course.

• The University offers the facility to allow students to pay tuition fees in advance prior to registration.
• Payment in full prior to the start date of your course may entitle you to a discount of 5% off the full fee less any scholarship offered by the University. Please note an invoice is not a mandatory requirement prior to making a payment in advance.
• You can calculate what you must pay before the start of teaching.  All payments will be made via the applicant/student portal.
• Early payment discount is only avaliable if private fees are over £5000 and SAAS/SLC funding does not count towards this.
• The amount payable with the 5% discount is calculated by taking the full tuition fee amount, subtracting any GCU scholarship, and then subtracting the 5% early payment discount. The amount after this is the remaining amount to pay. For example, an international fee-paying student whose programmes costs £18,900 could have the New to GCU discount of £3000 subtracted from this total, then have a 5% early payment discount of £795.00 subtracted, meaning they would have £15,105 to be paid.
