Sponsorship

We process sponsor award letters and financial guarantees provided by sponsors and submitted by students. If the documents are valid, we apply the funding to the student's account and then invoice the relevant sponsors.

Applying to your sponsor

You must apply each year to your sponsor for payment of your tuition fees and provide an award letter to the university.

Submit your application as soon as possible so that your sponsor can process it before you are due to register at the beginning of the new academic term.

Your sponsor must issue you with an award letter confirming that they are responsible for payment of your fees for each academic term.

Award letter requirements

The letter must meet the requirements listed below in order for your sponsorship to be approved and an invoice sent out to your sponsor.

Failure to provide the relevant information could result in the sponsorship letter being rejected during registration.

The information we need from your sponsor on your award letter:

  • Award letters must be on official letter headed paper
  • Student name and, if known, GUID
  • Amount (in £ Sterling) that the sponsor will pay
  • Sponsor name
  • Address to which invoice should be sent
  • Payment department contact details (name, email address and telephone number)
  • Sponsor's student reference number or PO number (where applicable)
  • Programme of study for which the student is being sponsored
  • Academic term for which the student is being sponsored

Sponsor invoice requests

Any specific sponsor invoice requests should be included on the sponsorship letter. We will aim to meet all sponsor requests where possible and will liaise directly with the sponsor to discuss any requests.
