You can pay your tuition fees online with a debit or credit card, using our Student Self Service Portal (S3P - Registration only) or Online Payment Portal, or by bank transfer or cheque.
When making a tuition fee payment quote your student number in the payment reference. This will ensure your payment can be allocated upon arrival.
To find your student number:
current or previously registered students - number is on your smartcard
prospective postgraduate students - number is the first 9 digits of your applicant number
If you have applied for a Tier 4 Visa - it is the first number on the top of your CAS statement
To ensure a smooth registration process, we recommend you arrange payment before arriving in Newcastle.
University tuition fees are not subject to exchange control regulations for Chinese students.
