Self Funded Student - Home / RUK / EU / EEA / International

Tuition fees are payable in three equal instalments (enrolment, January and April).  The first instalment is due for payment on or before enrolment.  At least one third of tuition fees must be paid in order to enrol onto your course. 

We can offer monthly instalments from September to April if this is more suitable for you, but this would require a payment agreement. Payments can be made on any date in the month.  Contact fees@gsa.ac.uk for further information.

We will send out reminders by email when payment is due, but we do not issue statements unless requested. Requests for statements can be made to fees@gsa.ac.uk .

We do not issue invoices unless requested. Requests for invoices can be made to fees@gsa.ac.uk

Company / Sponsor Funded Students

If your sponsor or company would prefer to pay fees directly to GSA, this can be arranged.  We ask that an official letter or purchase order from your company be forwarded to fees@gsa.ac.uk .  We will enrol you on the basis of this letter / purchase order.  Invoices will be issued to the relevant companies / sponsors within 2 weeks of enrolment.

US Loans Funded Students

If your tuition fees are funded by a US Loan, your first point of contact would be GSA’s Student Welfare Office on welfare@gsa.ac.uk .  Student Welfare will advise Finance which students are receiving US Loan funding.  Finance will then enrol the student on this basis.
