Set up a Payment Plan

You can use this form to request a standard Payment Plan or set up a Direct Debit Instruction for your accommodation fees, tuition fees or rent for staff housing.

Payment Plans and Direct Debit requests are subject to certain conditions, therefore all applications are reviewed by our Credit Control Team before approval. We will contact you through your University email account when your application is approved or if we have a query with your request.

Please Note: Some bank and building society accounts do not accept Direct Debit instructions e.g. certain savings accounts. Please check with your bank prior to completing this form if you are unsure.

Find out more information about our payment methods here.
