Application deposit update

Due to the exceptionally high volume of applications for the September 2026 intake, the deadline for paying a deposit for Postgraduate Taught (PGT) programmes is 31 July 2026.

After this date, no further PGT deposits will be accepted for the September 2026 intake. This is to allow sufficient time to complete the required pre-CAS checks and process applications already in the pipeline.

Applications with a deposit received by 31 July 2026 will continue to be processed. Applicants who are unable to meet this deadline may wish to defer their application to a later intake via the applicant portal.

Applicants who may be affected by this change will be contacted directly with further information.
