If you are government sponsored or receiving a scholarship from a (recognised) scholarship body, you will need to provide a letter of sponsorship/financial guarantee. This must be on letter-headed paper and include the following information:

• name of the programme and academic year for which the sponsorship applies
• amount of sponsorship (for example, full fees or specified amount in pounds sterling)
• your full name (as stated on your passport)
• your student identification number
• address and named contact to which the University of Cumbria should send the invoice
• full name and address of the sponsoring institution
• Fees for the placement year of 4-year Undergraduate programmes will be charged at a percentage of the yearly tuition fee.

Before you can get started with your course, you will be required to pay a deposit of up to 50% of the substantive programme fee, plus the full amount of any pre-sessional fees.

Until we receive this deposit, you will not be issued a 'Confirmation of Acceptance for Study' (CAS). Your offer letter will provide more information on how to pay your deposit, but we recommend paying online.

Please note that the deposit is non-refundable unless your visa is refused due to exceptional circumstances.

Students from certain countries may be asked to pay their full annual tuition fees in advance of receipt of their CAS.
