Fees and Funding

Fees and Funding

Financing your university journey or covering the costs of your professional development, can be a big factor in deciding what university to study at. At BNU we understand that there’s a lot to consider and we know that financial circumstances can be very different for many people.

Whether you are an Undergraduate, Postgraduate or International student there are several ways you can fund your studies, including scholarships, bursaries, sponsorships and student loans.

And, if you’re interested in a postgraduate programme and are a recent BNU graduate, you may even qualify for a fee discount on your postgraduate studies.

We know that the stress financial worries can cause, can have a significant and potentially harmful impact on a person’s mental health. We want to reassure you that we are here to support you and answer any questions you may have.

Student Finance

The most common way for students to cover university costs is by taking out a student finance loan, which can cover tuition fees and some living costs. Student finance options depend on what course you’re taking so take the time to explore what is available to you.

Our fees

Tuition fees are a key matter for all students, and it is important you are familiar with how to pay and what support may be available to you. Fees for specific courses can be found on the course web page.

Making a payment

Making a payment is simple using our secure online payment portal. For self-financing students, organising the payment of your tuition fees is essential. If you do not pay your fees at the correct time you may not have access to all of the facilities.
