Alumni Progression Bursary

International students registering for a postgraduate programme after completing a degree programme at either a University of Greenwich campus or partner college are eligible for a 10% reduction on the postgraduate tuition fee. The 10% reduction is applied after all scholarships and bursaries (where applicable) are deducted from the student fees. The programme must run a minimum of one academic year, and the reduction is applied upon full payment of the full-time tuition fee. This reduction does not apply to PGCE/CertEd and Diploma of Architecture programmes and programmes such as the MOst, MEng and MPharm which attract undergraduate fees. The student is encouraged to join the universitys alumni association, which offers a wide range of benefits for past students (alumni) and is free to join (visit www.gre.ac.uk/alumni for further information). If a student is awarded this discount, his or her details will be passed to the alumni association.

Pre-registration
For programmes that are based on our three campuses, a pre-registration deposit of 2,500 is required for all predegree, undergraduate and postgraduate programmes at the time of accepting an offer. The pre-registration deposit for applicants from Nigeria and Ghana is 3,500. The deposit acts as part of the tuition fees and reduces the tuition fees payable on registration. For applicants applying for their first Tier 4 student visa from outside the UK, the deposit and tuition fees paid in excess of the deposit are refundable only where the applicant provides evidence that the application for a student visa was not accepted for the year the academic offer was made. If an applicant defers his or her offer of a place to the next university intake, the deposit will be transferred to the new intake and will be refundable only

where the applicant provides evidence that the application for a student visa was not accepted for that intake. All refunds will be to the applicants home country. For applicants who have registered with the university on an existing visa and are applying for a new visa to study with the University of Greenwich the universities withdrawal/interruption refund policy will apply. Deposits CANNOT be paid by cheque, credit/debit card or cash. Accepted methods of payment are:

interrupt their studies will only be allowed in exceptional circumstances and must conform to university policy.
The university will notify the UK Border

Agency when a student withdraws, interrupts or defers from study.

Failure to pay fees

Registration for continuing students is dependant on the previous years fees being paid in full. As in previous years, student debtors are subject to an embargo on the assessment of work, award of certificates, attendance at graduation ceremonies and provision of references, or re-enrolment for failure to pay fees. This applies to all fees, such as tuition fees, halls of residence fees or fines for the replacement of library books, and any debt, whatsoever, to the university.

Note
Unless arrangements as set out in this leaflet are agreed at registration, you will be unable to register. Should you have any queries or problems regarding your fees, please contact your local Student Centre or the International Office. The university reserves the right to change any fees at any time without notice. Fees will be subject each year to a small increase for inflation. The university will endeavour to minimise any increases. The fees for any new programmes will be determined after validation.

Resitting and resubmission

Where a student needs to retake a course with tuition, a pro rata tuition charge will be payable based on the number of credits studied. A reduced level of charge will apply for resubmission of an assessment only. Students who repeat or interrupt will pay the published annual fee applicable for the year of re-entry. The Nationality Scholarship will not apply to resit or resubmission fees.

Students studying on a visa

An international student studying on a student visa must be studying on a full-time programme. It is the students responsibility to ensure that they are in possession of an appropriate and valid visa. Details of fees payable to the UK government for processing extensions to visas are available at www.ukvisas.gov.uk. Once you have paid your deposit and met all your offer conditions, please contact the International Office and we will assist you in obtaining a Confirmation of Acceptance of Studies. Please ensure that you include your full name, date of birth and student reference number in all communications.
