Students registering at the College from October 2012 will be able to pay their tuition fees in instalments by Direct Debit.

The following instructions apply:

1. First-year students must have already paid or pay their deposit at Registration (Home students £500.00/Overseas students £2,000.00) before they may pay the balance of their fees in instalments.
2. Completed Direct Debit forms should be handed in to Finance staff at Registration. Forms received after 9 October 2012 will not be accepted for processing.
3. In the reference number box on the Direct Debit form, enter your six-digit student number, which can be found on your offer letter. You can also get this number at Registration.
4. Please complete the account holder’s address for Direct Debit correspondence in the box labelled ‘For official use of the Royal College of Art’. This is particularly important if somebody (for example a parent) is paying the fee on your behalf.
5. The Direct Debit will be taken from the nominated bank account on or soon after the following dates:
   20 November 2012
   20 January 2013
   20 April 2013
6. The Direct Debit Scheme will only operate with current UK bank accounts. If you do not hold a current UK account, you will be unable to pay by this option.
7. If at any point you cancel a Direct Debit for tuition fees with a balance outstanding, or if there are insufficient funds in the account, then the remaining balance becomes payable immediately.
8. Payment by instalments does not qualify for early payment discounts.
9. If you have any questions, please contact the Finance Office at +44 (0)20 7590 4158.
