1. Taking out a tuition fee loan - Students will be liable for their tuition fee from the start date of their programme/first day of term (unless they leave on the first day of term). We recognise, however, that where a tuition fee loan has been taken out, payments will be made by the Student Loan Company on a student’s behalf, shortly after the dates shown below.

2. Once a term has started, students are liable for the full fee for that term (unless they leave on the first day of term), even if they withdraw or take a leave of absence from their programme during the term. Please note: this is subject to the 14 days (10 working days) "cooling off" period available to students in the first year of a new programme (not including internal transfers between programmes).
3. Paying your own fees – A student’s total tuition fee for 2023/24 will be charged from the start date of their programme/first day of term. If a student chooses not to take out a tuition fee loan, they are required to pay fees in full at the start of term. If they are unable to pay in full they must pay a minimum of 50 per cent by 31 October 2023 and set up an agreed instalment plan for the balance. For details please contact income@dmu.ac.uk.

4. Term dates and tuition fee liability points differ for some Health and Life Sciences Faculty programmes due to the number of weeks of study per academic year. The tables below set out details of courses that have non- standard undergraduate term dates and where applicable the varied liability points for these programmes, depending on the programme and if there are multiple intakes.
5. Please note: students who change seasonal intake (also known as backgrouping their studies, i.e. change from a January or March start date to a September start date) will remain on their original Student Finance annual cycle for Tuition Fee Loan and Maintenance purposes. This is due to the way in which Student Loan Company Funding Regulations restrict the way in which student funding can be paid. In line with this, СʪÃÃÊÓƵ will continue to draw down student fees based on the original intake.
a. Backgrouped students will be required to pay for additional registration periods which may or may not be covered by a Tuition Fee Loan entitlement. Such students are required to seek advice from the University’s Student Finance and Welfare team about fee liability and funding entitlement before committing to study dates and backgrouping arrangements proposed by their Faculty.
