Postgraduate Scholarships 2012-2013
Payment of Tuition Fees
If a private company or some other organisation will be paying your tuition and/or accommodation fees, you should provide sponsor details to the Cash Office at the earliest opportunity in order that we can invoice the sponsor. Invoices will be sent out to sponsors at the start of the academic session and must be paid within 30 days. If we invoice your sponsor and they fail to pay your fees within 30 days of receiving the invoice, fees may be transferred to your account with the University and you will be liable for payment in full. Sponsorship confirmation is required for each year of study, not just in year one. The University will contact you if we encounter problems in receiving payment from your sponsor.
If you have any enquiries regarding sponsors paying your fees, then please do not hesitate to contact Student Finance.
Maintenance Payments
Postgraduate maintenance awards for academic session 2012-2013 will be paid on the second last working day of each month directly into the student's nominated UK bank account by BACS. Students must ensure that they are fully Registered otherwise their maintenance payment may be delayed. Please note that payment due on 1 October may be delayed briefly depending on when the student matriculates.
New bank details and any amendments must be submitted online via e-Vision so that they are validated and payment can be processed directly into their nominated bank account.
Students can make arrangements to have deductions taken from their scholarship payments towards their University accommodation fees by choosing this option while completing matriculation or by e-mailing the Finance Scholarship team, finschol@st-andrews.ac.uk
Students who are paid directly by an external agency should contact that agency for payment arrangements.
Schools/Units
Any school or unit providing a scholarship to a student must complete the Scholarship Request Form. This needs to be sent to finschol@st-andrews.ac.uk from the personal email account of an authorised signatory.
All scholarship requests must be received by Friday 20th July 2012.
Please note that for any student requiring a CAS number for visa requirements the deadline for passing information on paying a student’s tuition fees is Friday 1st June 2012.
If you have any queries regarding submitting a scholarship request for a student please contact the Finance scholarship team on 01334 46 3094/2519.
