Payment in instalments:

Direct Debit
- If you are a new International student, and you do not have a valid UK bank account and you wish to pay by direct debit you must first pay a minimum of 60% of your fee. You will be able to set up a direct debit for the remaining fee once you arrive in the UK and have a valid UK bank account. Your direct debit must be in place before the start of term to pay the remainder of your fee.
- If you are an International student and have a valid UK bank account you can set up the Direct Debit for the full fee without having to pay the 60% in advance.

Manual Instalment Plan and Agreed Payment Plans
- You can opt to pay tuition fees, accommodation or bench fees by manual instalment plan. These are required to be set up separately. This option will ensure any charges billed throughout the term are incorporated into your instalment plan and are visible through your student centre.
- We offer eight instalments for tuition and bench fees which will fall due on the 30th of each month starting in October and seven instalments for accommodation fees. Any deposits paid in advance will be deducted from your account before we calculate the instalment amounts.
- Please ensure that you have sufficient funds to meet your instalment payments and these are paid direct to the university by the due date of the 30th, using your student number as your reference.
- Should 2 payments of a manual instalment plan be missed in a term, we will cancel the instalment plan and the full balance of remaining fees will become due immediately
- and you will not be able to reinstate a manual instalment plan in that term.
- In this instance, a secure agreed payment plan should be made with the collections department on finance-student@glasgow.ac.uk to ensure your account is not passed to an external collections agency. This option offers more flexibility as we can select a due date suitable for you.
- Cancelling a Manual Instalment Plan or an Agreed Payment Plan:
- If you wish to cancel your manual instalment plan or agreed payment plan, please do so by writing to finance-student@glasgow.ac.uk
- If you cancel your manual instalment plan or agreed payment plan any balance of fees still outstanding will become payable in full immediately.

Health Services Management PGCert - Batch of 2025

Enriching academic experience with some practical challenges.

Tips: Joining the University of Glasgow requires adjusting to independent study and a higher cost of living. While the cultural shift was mainly academic, the diverse and supportive environment has been very helpful. I am very satisfied with my course, university, and life here.

Likes (Indian Food): Glasgow offers a variety of Indian restaurants at affordable to mid-range prices. The area also boasts diverse Asian, Middle Eastern, and European cuisine options. While I enjoy trying different places, I mostly prefer cooking for myself since I live off-campus.

Dislikes (Internships): I was unable to secure an internship. While the guidance through career services and online portals is good, opportunities exist but are competitive and not always aligned with Health Services Management, making it challenging.

Part-time jobs in the city centre can be challenging to find.

Tips: Find out how to apply for scholarships and look for affordable accommodation near the city centre, as getting part-time work is relatively easy here. For budget living, check out the Olio app and the student eco hub, where you can find free items. There isn't a major cultural shock, and it's a safe city, especially for women.

Likes (Indian Food): I cook at home often, but Glasgow has a good selection of Indian restaurants, including Bantawala, Rishi Aroma, and Madras Dosa. There are also great Indian grocery stores like House of Sheer, Suresh N Sons, KRK, and Ganpathy Store. Additionally, there's langar available at the Gurudwara every day.

Dislikes (Part time work): Initially, the on-campus part-time jobs are quickly filled, so you need to look for the right opportunities. Part-time jobs in the city centre can be challenging, but keep trying. Ensure you prioritise your studies over part-time work and avoid damaging any lawns.

Don't romanticize the struggles but prepare for a stressful but rewarding experience.

Tips: The university is very liberal, so sometimes viewing things from another perspective can be seen in a negative way. There was a sentence from my tutor, at the very first meeting of the year, that summarises the entire course: 'You get what you put into it'. If you work hard and put your effort into getting as much as possible out of the course, it will be a great experience. The subways and buses get you anywhere. All public transportation is easy to use and get familiar with. There is also the option to get a complete transportation pass, which you can travel on most public transportation with for free, if you're under 25.

Dislikes (Internships): There is not much guidance regarding internships. They are only mentioned occasionally, and the career service does not do a great job. It's not a target school for all subjects, so that might depend on your course. The study trip to Brussels is a good opportunity to network, but it might not be relevant for non-European students.

Be prepared for mildly rough weather, and start honing your analytical skills.

Tips: Be prepared for an academic and cultural shift, but it will be a really smooth experience. Be sure to apply early, preferably in February, to snag one of their international student scholarships. Each is worth 10,000 British pounds, and they can be a big help. Also, be prepared for mildly rough weather, and start honing your analytical skills now. It will help you ace your exams and assignments and enjoy your time here.

Education along with personality development.

Tips: Glasgow is very diverse and inclusive, and so friendly that I felt at home quickly. The University was also very helpful in my transition. I was looking for scholarships and unfortunately missed the deadline to apply for one. However, there are many people who got scholarships earlier. I'm still very satisfied with the university, and it's given me a lot of good opportunities to build skills and meet people from diverse backgrounds and cultures.

Likes (Public transportation): The campus is in the heart of the city. There are subways nearby, a train station is 20 minutes away, and there are bus stops in multiple locations. There are student discounts available and, most importantly, there are student pass facilities. The transportation is very convenient and decently affordable.

Dislikes (Value for money): The tuition fee is too much if there is no scholarship provided. The expenses on student accommodation, yearly living expenses, and extra-curricular activities all come to a lot of investment when it comes to the return of job opportunities. It would take a lot of years for us to recover in terms of money.
