Fees and funding

The costs associated with postgraduate study are different to those at undergraduate level, as is the funding available.

We understand that postgraduate study of any kind is a big financial commitment and at BU we aim to provide you with effective support and advice.

There are now more reasons that ever to study a Master's level qualification with the government postgraduate loan scheme available for eligible UK students only for September 2021 and January 2022 entry. If eligible, you would receive the first payment after your course start date, once we confirm that you have registered. Each year's amount will be paid in three instalments of 33%, 33% and 34%. The instalments will be paid directly to you at the beginning of each term.

We also offer a number of non-repayable scholarships.

You can find more information on the gov.uk website.
