Learn more about instalment plan options when paying your tuition fees

If you are self-funding and your fees are more than £1,000 per year, you can pay in instalments using an instalment plan (previously known as a payment plan). This does not apply to Pre-sessional programmes, short courses and one-semester Study Abroad Associate programmes.

Arranging an instalment plan

Step 1 - Pay the first instalment

Home fee paying undergraduate students must pay at least 25%.

All Postgraduates, Overseas and Overseas EU undergraduate students must pay at least 50% of the self-funding portion of the tuition fee before arranging an instalment plan. If you have an approved Postgraduate loan from Student Finance that covers all of the total tuition fees, you only need to complete steps 2, 3, and 4.

Please find all payment details on out How To Pay page.

Step 2 - Pay the instalment plan admin charge

There is a non-refundable admin charge of £50/€60 for instalment plans. This charge does not apply to Home fee paying undergraduate students.

IMPORTANT NOTICE:

Please ensure the first instalment and the admin charge are paid separately.

Step 3 - Submit an instalment plan for the remaining balance

You will need to log in to the instalment plan portal using your Queen Mary username. This will be in the format ab123456 and was emailed to you by Queen Mary IT Services.

You must submit your plan for approval. Please see suitable examples of instalment plans at the bottom of the Instalment Plan Policy page.

Step 4 - Only those who applied for a UK Postgraduate loan

If you are in receipt of a Student Finance Postgraduate Master’s or Doctoral loan, you must upload a copy of your loan entitlement letter to AskQM with the 'Tuition Fees' - 'Instalment / Payment Plans' category.

Please include "Postgraduate loan" with your student ID number in the subject of the enquiry. You must complete Step 1 above if the postgraduate loan is less than the total tuition fee amount.
