Although London has one of the highest costs of living in the UK, the University works hard to support you to study with us. We have a number of scholarships available to help you with things like travel and the University Hardship Fund for students experiencing financial difficulties.
You can use the UK Council for International Student Affairs (UKCISA)'s online international student calculator to estimate how much money you will need to live and study in London.

If your tuition fee is paid by an Official Sponsor
If your tuition fee is paid by official sponsorship or a Government grant, you must give the University evidence on or before the date of your student registration.
Acceptable evidence is an official letter on your sponsor's letterhead stationary. If you don't send this to us you won't be able to register for your course.
If your sponsor isn't paying the full amount of your tuition or withdraws their sponsorship during the financial year for any reason, it's your responsibility to pay any outstanding amount.
Methods of Payment
Make sure you're quoting the correct name and application number on every tuition fee transaction. It's also important that you read all University Financial Policies before sending any payment.
There are four ways you can pay tuition fees:
- Pay online with a credit or debit card
- Make a bank transfer directly to the University of Sunderland’s bank account
- Send a bank draft in £ sterling (GBP) addressed to The University of Sunderland, Edinburgh Building, City Campus, Chester Road, Sunderland, SR1 3SD.
If you're making a bank transfer, please use the following details:
- Bank: Barclays Bank PLC, Fawcett Street, Sunderland, SR1 1RS, UK
- Account: University of Sunderland
- Account Number: 00065692
- Bank Sort Code: 20-85-59
- IBAN: GB61 BARC 2085 5900 0656 92
- SWIFT: BARC GB 22
Please note: It can take up to two weeks for the University of Sunderland to receive money sent through an international bank transfer. We can't register you until we've got the money, so make sure you leave plenty of time to pay your fees.
If you have any questions about payments, please contact the Finance Office: revenues.finance@sunderland.ac.uk / +44 (0) 191 515 2455.
