If you're thinking about studying in the UK, it's important to plan and budget for your course fees and living costs.
The cost of your course will depend on what you want to study at Leeds Becket University. You can see your course fees by visiting your course web page and scrolling down to the fees section. Remember to click on the international tab.
You can pay for your course in different ways. With your own funds, or through a sponsorship depending on which country you are applying from. Once you have accepted your place on your course, you will need to pay 50% of your fees or provide evidence of your sponsorship. Then you will need to pay the remaining course fees within three months of starting your course.
Leeds Beckett University has a number of scholarships that can help towards paying your course fees, These range from £1,000 to £6,000. For more information on these, go to leedsbeckett.ac.uk/international/scholarships
In addition to your tuition fees, you also need to think about your living costs whilst studying in the UK. So how much will you need? As per UK visa and immigration guidelines, you need to show £1,136 per month (up to nine months). So that's £10,224 for one year. Of course, your living costs will depend on your lifestyle. But remember, you will need to evidence that you can afford to live in the UK for your student visa application.
Also, when choosing your student accommodation, you'll need a deposit to secure your place to live. This can vary depending on whether you choose Leeds Beckett accommodation or go through a private landlord.
If you need to earn money during your studies, we have a dedicated student job board and career service that can help you find part-time work. You could apply to be an international student ambassador and get paid for working at Leeds Beckett events. The payment can help towards living costs and with any cost materials you need to buy. But remember, most students can only work up to 20 hours per week during term time on their student visa.
