How to apply

Home fee-paying students

The process for Alumni Discount as a home fee-paying student is different depending on whether you have previously studied only as an undergraduate and will be studying a new postgraduate course with us or whether you have previously studied at postgraduate level with us (even if you also studied at undergraduate level with us).

If you previously studied only as an undergraduate and will be studying a new postgraduate course with us:

• You do not need to complete an application form. 
• Instead, you need to tick the 'UG at ºù«Ӱҵ' box and input your previous registration number where indicated on the financial declaration page when completing your online pre-registration tasks in August or September before you commence your postgraduate course. It is your responsibility to ensure that you tick this box when you complete the financial declaration.
• The discount will then be automatically applied to your tuition fee.

If you have previously studied at postgraduate level with us (even if you also studied at undergraduate level with us):

• You will need to have received an offer to study with us.
• You will need to complete the Alumni Discount Application Form, using your MUSE for offer holders login. It is your responsibility to ensure that you complete the application form.
• You will then receive an email confirming the discount once it has been applied, usually during July to August, once your student record is available. 

If you started your course before September 2021, please contact the Student Funding Team.

Overseas fee-paying students

Once you have received an offer to study with us, you will need to complete the Alumni Discount Application Form, using your MUSE for offer holders login. It is your responsibility to ensure that you complete the application form.

You will then receive an email confirming the discount once it has been applied, usually during July to August, once your student record is available. 

If you started your course before September 2021, please contact the Student Funding Team.
