De Montfort University Marketing Programs

De Montfort University fees for Indian students depend on the route, intake, and the published 2026/27 fee band. Postgraduate (PG) tuition ranges from £16,800 (INR 21.63 Lakhs) to £20,900 (INR 26.91 Lakhs). Undergraduate (UG) tuition ranges from £16,800 (INR 21.63 Lakhs) to £17,300 (INR 22.28 Lakhs).

De Montfort University Scholarships for Indian Students

£3,500 (INR 4.51 Lakhs) is the largest automatic DMU tuition reduction listed for eligible PG routes.

University awards come first because they reduce tuition automatically. External awards need separate applications and different intake dates.

Chevening is the main external award with a live India route for the next autumn PG intake. It supports tuition, living costs, travel, and allowances rather than one fixed cash figure.

DMU has not published a single target-intake course deadline for every programme. Use the target-intake deadline pending until the chosen course page or offer letter provides it.

Fee Saving Strategies for Indian Students
