Everything you need to know about fees, funding and how to manage your money
Paying your deposit
When you accept your offer for a Master’s course, you'll need to pay a deposit to reserve your place. The deposit is 10% of your first-year course fee.
We'll send an invoice for the deposit by email five working days after you accept your offer. You'll need to pay the deposit within 30 days of receiving your invoice.
Tuition fees
The tuition fees for our postgraduate courses are set by Imperial and vary by course.
There are two rates of tuition: Home and Overseas.
The rate you pay is determined by your fee status, which we assess after you apply using criteria set out in the UK government’s fee regulations.
Funding your studies
There’s a range of financial support on offer to help you fund your studies at Imperial.
Thinking about your living costs
It’s really important to consider what your living costs could be to help you to budget and manage your money.
You can use our guide to living costs to understand what you could spend on transport, food, leisure and transport. Don’t forget, you’ll also need to think about costs for travel to London and visas (if you need one), accommodation deposits and household essentials. You should also check if there are any additional costs for study materials, field trips or visits for your course.
