When to pay

You must register with the University before you can pay your fees.

We will start invoicing for tuition fees from 14 September 2023 for all students who have registered online. Your invoice(s) will appear in your Financial Statement on the MyBristol portal within 48 hours.

We will start invoicing for accommodation fees from 28 September 2023.

How to pay

Once you can see your invoice in the MyBristol portal fees and funding channel, you can:

• Pay in full by 24 October 2023, online using a debit or credit card.
• Set up an instalments payment plan online. If you choose to pay in instalments make sure you know when the payment dates are.

You can also:

• pay in advance for an invoice that has not yet been raised. Go to your Financial Statement in the MyBristol portal fees and funding channel.
• visit the Online Payments site to change your card details, or make one-off payments or third-party payments for fees, courses, programme deposits and sports passes. You should have your student number and date of birth ready for validation.
• pay in full by bank transfer. Due to bank processing times, it can take up to 7 days for your payment to show in your financial statement.

You cannot pay in person, but you can pay in different ways online.

Once your plan is set up, you don’t need to do anything else for the rest of the academic year, unless we contact you. Payment will be taken automatically on the payment dates.
