University of Roehampton Scholarships for Indian Students

Roehampton’s flagship award for Indian students is the International Excellence Scholarship at £1,000, £2,500, or £4,000 (₹1.30 to ₹5.18 Lakhs). It is auto-assessed on your application, no separate form. The university also offers subject-specific awards in Esports, Sports, and Engineering.

University of Roehampton Tuition Deposit and Payment Options

Roehampton requires an advance tuition payment after you accept your offer, which secures your CAS. The exact deposit amount is confirmed in your offer letter, counts toward your first-instalment tuition, and is refundable only in the narrow visa-refusal scenarios listed in your offer terms.

Methods of payment

• Bank transfer (telegraphic transfer): direct GBP payment to Roehampton’s UK bank account. 
• International student payment provider (Convera or Flywire, confirmed on your offer): pay in INR from any Indian bank, locked exchange rate, no wire fees, saves 2-3% versus a raw wire.
• Forex card (BookMyForex, Niyo, HDFC ForexPlus): load once in GBP and pay through the student portal, no per-transaction wire charge.
• Education loan disbursement: sanctioned bank (SBI, HDFC Credila, Avanse, Auxilo) transfers direct to Roehampton on your invoice.
• Online payment in full: attracts a 2% discount on tuition, worth £380 (₹49,244) on an £18,980 MSc and £400 (₹51,836) on an £20,020 MBA.

Steps to pay the tuition fee for international students

1. Accept your offer through the applicant portal.
2. Pay the tuition deposit specified in your offer letter to trigger CAS release.
3. Attend the mandatory pre-CAS interview (required by Roehampton for Indian applicants) and receive your CAS statement.
4. Pay any remaining first-instalment tuition balance before or at enrolment (usually within 14 days of arrival).
5. Pay the remaining instalments per the schedule on your student account.
6. Keep every payment receipt for the Student Visa file and future PAN and tax records.

Roehampton offers a two-instalment plan for the annual tuition on request. The first instalment (deposit plus a further tranche) is due at or before enrolment; the second falls in January or February for September starters, and in June or July for January starters. Paying in a single up-front instalment online unlocks the 2% online payment discount noted above.

Hidden Costs of Studying at University of Roehampton

The visible tuition and rent numbers are only about 85% of your Year 1 outlay. Budget ₹3 to ₹4 Lakhs for one-time and easily-missed line items across Student Visa, health surcharge, initial setup, and academic extras.

• Time-sensitive for January 2027 intake: Book your Student Visa slot at VFS Delhi, Mumbai, or Bengaluru now for December 2026, slot availability tightens 6 weeks before the intake.
• Student Visa fee: £558 (₹71,249), paid online with the visa application on gov.uk.
• IHS: £776 (₹1,00,562) per year, paid upfront for the full course length.
• CAS deposit and enrolment: paid ahead of visa, held first, then counted toward tuition. Amount is set in your offer letter.
• Airport transfer and settling-in kit (bedding, kitchenware, winter coat, adaptors): £400 to £600 (₹51,836 to ₹77,754) in the first two weeks.
• Textbooks and course materials: £200 to £400 (₹25,918 to ₹51,836) per year, lower if you rely on the 24/7 library.
• Return flight India to London: ₹55,000 to ₹90,000 depending on season, airline, and route.

Total: budget approximately ₹3 to ₹4 Lakhs for first-year hidden costs on top of your tuition and rent lines.

Fee Saving Strategies for University of Roehampton Indian Students

For the January 2027 intake, your two highest-value levers are the auto-assessed International Excellence Scholarship (up to ₹5.18 Lakhs) and the 2% online payment discount (₹49,244 on a standard MSc). Combined, that is roughly ₹5.65 Lakhs off Year 1 without changing your programme or lifestyle.

• Choose on-campus over private off-campus rent. Roehampton’s £5,694 (₹7.38 Lakhs) standard room includes utilities and Wi-Fi; nearby Putney or Wandsworth private lets run £900 to £1,200 per month plus bills, ₹5 to ₹8 Lakhs more per year.
• Work up to 20 hours a week during term and 40 hours in vacations on your Student Visa. London minimum wage for 21+ is £12.21 per hour, which offsets £8,000 to £10,000 (₹10.37 to ₹12.96 Lakhs) of annual living costs.
• Claim Section 80E under Indian income tax on the interest of your education loan for up to 8 years post-graduation, deductible in full with no upper limit.
• Use the Graduate Route Visa after your PG: 2 years of unrestricted work in the UK post-Masters. A £28,000 (₹36.29 Lakhs) starting salary (Roehampton’s placement graduate average) covers a substantial share of loan repayment within the visa window.
• Pay tuition in full online for the 2% discount: £380 (₹49,244) off an £18,980 MSc, £400 (₹51,836) off an £20,020 MBA.
• If you are a Roehampton alumnus (UG returning for PG, or vice versa), the 20% alumni discount saves £3,796 (₹4.92 Lakhs) on an £18,980 MSc.

Is University of Roehampton Worth the Cost for Indian Students

A 1-year MSc at Roehampton lands at ₹43 to ₹44 Lakhs all-in, against a UK Graduate Route Visa that gives you 2 years of unrestricted work post-study. Roehampton’s own graduate outcomes report 95% of graduates in employment or further study within 15 months, with placement graduates earning an average £28,000 (₹36.29 Lakhs) starting salary and a 15% salary uplift versus non-placement peers.

• The Graduate Route Visa remains in force as of July 2026 at 2 years post-Masters and 3 years post-PhD.
• A £28,000 (₹36.29 Lakhs) London graduate salary, net of UK income tax and rent, leaves roughly £1,000 to £1,200 (₹1.30 to ₹1.55 Lakhs) per month for loan repayment and savings.
• On an ₹43 Lakh MSc loan at 10.5% over 10 years, EMI works out to about ₹58,000 per month, roughly 40% of a Roehampton graduate’s post-tax London monthly take-home. That is high but manageable if you stay on the Graduate Route for the full 2 years and prepay in Year 3 once you either switch to a Skilled Worker Visa or return to India.

Roehampton is not a research-elite institution, but the 95% graduate outcome rate, the 20-minute Waterloo commute, the 54-acre parkland campus, and the sub-London-average on-campus accommodation cost make it a defensible mid-tier London choice for Indian students who value teaching contact over prestige rankings. The value case rests on the Graduate Route Visa working in your favour: if UK post-study work rules tighten before your intake, revisit the maths.
