Early Payment Discount

Aim and Benefits of Early Payment Discount

This is an automatic award of £2,000 for self-funded international fee-paying postgraduate students who pay their deposit via the applicant portal within 10 days of receiving an offer.

Requirements for Early Payment Discount Qualification

In order to be eligible applicants must:

• Be an overseas fee-paying student for a full-time masters course starting in September 2025 or February 2026*
• Be self-funded (you must be paying for your studies independently rather than being sponsored. Students in receipt of an educational loan are eligible for this award)
• Not be in receipt of another scholarship from the University, such as the International Excellence Award or the Future Leaders scholarship (students can accept one University-managed scholarship of the highest value)
• Have paid the deposit via the applicant portal within 10 days of receiving an offer.

This scholarship is not open to students from the Surrey International Study Centre (SISC).

Students who are eligible for the alumni discount can have this scholarship in addition to the alumni discount (can combine the alumni discount and early payment discount).

*Excludes part-time and distance-learning courses.

Application Deadline

How to Apply

As the fee will be automatically awarded, students do not need to apply.
