How do I make sure my funding continues?
UK and EU continuing students must re-apply to their regional student finance body (e.g. Student Finance England) for funding each year (this includes for both maintenance and tuition fee support).
Your student loan for maintenance, grants, and/or any UCL financial support will not be processed and released into your bank account until you have paid the right amount of fees and are classified as fully registered/enrolled. If you have a tuition fee loan, UCL will be notified automatically once this is approved by your student finance body. We will then confirm your registration/enrolment at the start of the academic year.

How do I pay tuition fees?
If you are self-funding*, you need to ensure at least one third of your fees are paid by the 31 October 2023. You can pay on-line through Flywire prior to or during the online re-enrolment task or after you have enrolled. If you have fees funding from Student Finance England (SFE), an external sponsor or a UCL Studentship/Scholarship that is not showing when you re-enrol, continue by selecting option “Fees total is correct”. Sponsorship letters from external organisations should be forwarded to Student Fees (fees.sponsor@ucl.ac.uk) but evidence of SFE or UCL Studentship/Scholarship funding is not required as your Portico account will soon be updated automatically. Students in receipt of funding from one of the UCL Fee Partnerships (Conacyt, Conicyt, Colfuturo, IEFFE Indonesia etc) should resubmit their sponsorship letters every year to ensure their accounts are updated promptly.
You will be enrolled on a Time Limited Enrolment (TLE) basis until any sponsorship is recorded on your Portico account and (if applicable) payment of one third of your personal fee liability has been received.
Failure to pay your fees before the end of Time Limited Enrolment may result in restricted access to UCL services/facilities and funding sources (including Student Loan Company Loans) and, ultimately, the suspension of your registration.

For further information and advice regarding your tuition fees please email the Student Fees team
*Students in receipt of a SFE Postgraduate or Doctoral (Research) loan are considered self-funding as the loan is for study costs and paid to students direct. We will ensure your enrolment status is updated to allow SFE to release your first loan instalment to be paid to you on time. You will then need to ensure one third of your UCL fees is paid by the 31 October.
