The fees you pay
cover the University administration costs and, when you register,
for the materials you are sent as part of your
introductory study package. In addition you will need to set
aside money for other costs (see 'Other costs' below).
Please note: The University
reserves the right to amend previously announced fees, if
necessary. All fees must be paid in pounds sterling, and may be
paid either by a credit card recognised by Mastercard
International or by the Visa group OR by
banker's draft, cheque or UK postal order, made payable to 'The
University of London' and crossed 'a/c payee'.
Other costs
Besides the fees payable to the University, you should budget
for the cost of purchasing textbooks (this may well be in the
region of £200 per year); the cost of any course or tuition you
may or (for the Diploma) are required to take and the fee levied
by your local examination centre to cover their costs.
Financial assistance
Students resident in the UK may be able to obtain a
discretionary award to cover registration and examination fees
from their local education authority to whom such inquiries
should be addressed. Some employers, in both the public and the
private sector, are also prepared to provide such funding. Both
local education authorities and some other employers do from
time to time provide financial assistance towards the cost of
attending short courses.
