I am having trouble paying my fees, is there any help available?

If you have been assessed as an international student, you are not entitled to any support from the UK Government. Some help may be available in the form of scholarships, bursaries, education trusts or charities; although the funding available is extremely limited and will not meet the full costs of study. It is, therefore, essential that you fully understand your liability for fees and the full costs of study.

Before you leave your home country, you must secure sufficient funds to support yourself and any dependants while in the UK. If you or your sponsors are trasferring money from your home country to the UK, you need to make sure than any foreign exchange requirements are met, so that you will receinve the money in time to be able to pay your tuition fees, accommodation charges and other expenses.You will also need to ensure that you comply with any immigration requirements for study in the UK.
