Tuition fees 2009/10

EU and International Students – an opportunity to take advantage of favourable exchange rates

The exchange rate between sterling and other currencies has moved several times over the past year. At the moment, it is cheaper to buy sterling than it has been for some time. If you wish to take advantage of the current exchange rate and not risk the rate moving against you later in the year, then you may pay your fees early, provided you are in receipt of an unconditional offer from the University.

 

Please note, that once you have paid your fees, we may not be able to refund these if you subsequently do not start your course at City University London, nor can you take advantage of more favourable exchange rates, should those occur later in the year.

Payments

Fees may be paid either in full at registration, or in two equal instalments. The first instalment, 50 per cent of the tuition fee, must be paid in order to be fully registered, and the second instalment is payable before the last working day of January.

Withdrawals and refunds

If a student leaves the University after commencing but before completing their course, the University reserves the right to charge the student the tuition fee for the full academic year in question (or full course for capacity-limited Postgraduate courses, up to a maximum of 2 years fees). The student may be charged the full fee for that year or course as applicable unless the student is able to present justification to the University that exceptional and unforeseeable reasons for their withdrawal exist.

Funding

Please see the Journalism bursaries page and the University's student funds page for information about how you might fund your studies.
