King's College London welcomes students from over 150 countries around the world and the requirements and business processes for each sponsor can vary considerably.

If your tuition fees are being paid to King's College London, by any of the specific sponsors below, then please familiarise yourself with the requirements so that we are able to promptly generate the fee invoice to them and to secure payment from them.

Once you have successfully applied to the Student Loans Company for funding of your undergraduate tuition fees, you should receive a 'notification of funding' letter from them to confirm the amount that they are paying towards your fees.

In addition, Kings’ College London receive regular automatic updates from the Student Loans Company which are used to base the invoicing process on.

Those students who have applied successfully to receive part funding of their fees, will receive an invoice in October for the balance of fees that they are responsible for, but this will not be payable until 31 January. If you wish to do so, you can make part or full payment before the January due date.

If you have been sent a tuition fee invoice, but understood from the Student Loans Company that they are funding your fees, then we would strongly advise you to contact Student Finance England to discuss your situation. Whilst you may have been sent a notification of funding letter previously, Student Finance England do re-assess applications and can change their funding decision and as a result the student can then become liable for the fees. If after speaking to Student Finance, they agree to fund your fees, then ask them to send you an updated financial notification letter which you will need to provide to Credit Control.

Upon receipt of a new valid financial notification letter, Credit Control can liaise with the Student Funding Office to arrange to amend your fee liability accordingly.

Please visit our Student Funding web pages for further information about Applying for Student Loans and Grants.

If you are confused by a decision from the SLC and/or you wish to challenge it, you may find it useful to speak to the Student Advice team within King’s Student Services. There are Specialist Money Advisers within the team who are experts on the eligibility criteria for UK funding and will be able to advise you on the SLC decision and any options you may have with respect to appealing the decision or complaining about how your application was handled.

Please note that as the Postgraduate Master's and Doctoral SLC Loans are paid to the students directly you will be considered a self-funded student.

Student Finance will inform the university if you are receiving a Postgraduate Master’s Loan, and you do not need to inform the university of your funding.

In order to invoice the Saudi Embassy, we require a copy of the Financial Sponsorship Letter (FSL).  Please ensure that your correct course name is shown in the “Course Degree Title” field on the FSL.

If you do not have this available at the point of enrolment, then you should instead provide a copy of the equivalent Financial Guarantee Letter in the interim. Once you have obtained your 'Non-Standard Confirmation of Study' letter post enrolment and you have provided this to your academic supervisor at the Saudi Embassy, then you should be able to obtain the FSL from the embassy. Please then email this to Credit Control.

Where you have applied and have successfully secured funding from NHS England specifically for your tuition fees, then King's College London will be informed by them directly.

Where funding has not been confirmed by the NHS by the end of November, you will be invoiced directly in early December, with payment due from you, by 31 January.

If you have received the invoice but then apply and receive funding from NHS England late, then please upload evidence of the funding through one of the forms at the bottom of this page.

If you are intercalating to King's from another university, you should upload a copy of the NHS Bursary Notification of Award letter within the enrolment task. If you have already enrolled, then please raise a query through Student Services Online clearly stating that you are an intercalating student.

If you have secured funding from any of the above, you do not need to upload funding evidence in the enrolment task.

However, you must ensure that you are liaising with the Student Funding Office to ensure your application is progressed accordingly and that King's College London are able to secure payment.

In order to invoice the embassy, King's College London need a copy of your Financial Sponsorship Letter (FSL). If you do not have the FSL when you enrol then you should provide a copy of the equivalent Financial Guarantee Letter in the interim.

If you were not able to provide either the FSL or the guarantee letter at enrolment, then please also email this to Credit Control.
