Payment plans for courses over £500
In general, we can offer an instalment plan for courses costing over £500 that run for at least 9 weeks.
The number of payments depends on the duration of the course, and you will need to agree for us to automatically debit your payment card each month, on the payment dates set out in your instalment plan agreement.
If you course requires an assessment, application or interview you will be asked when you are accepted if you would like a payment plan. You can set this up when you enrol online.
If your course does not require an assessment, application or interview, to set up your plan, please call our Student Services team on
