Deposits and bonds

If you wish to accept an offer of a place at Buckingham you must return your completed Acceptance Statement to secure your place. Please read the methods of payment information very carefully.

If you are an International student (outside of the EU) you are required to pay your first term’s fees in advance. £1,000 of this will be held as a non-refundable deposit, except for overseas applicants unable to obtain a visa, whose whole deposit may be refunded upon receipt of an original visa refusal letter.

If you plan to live in University accommodation you are required to pay £1,150 in advance towards accommodation costs. This will be deducted from the cost of your accommodation. Payment must be made prior to the start of term. The precise date (for each intake) will be confirmed on our Joining Instructions. If you have any questions, please contact the Accommodation Office.

You are also required to pay a bond, which is returned at the end of the programme less any outstanding charges.
