The University of Leicester does not typically require an initial deposit for most undergraduate or postgraduate courses. However, some specialized programs, particularly those for international students, may request a deposit to secure a place. This amount varies but is often around £2,000–£3,000 for international applicants.
Deposits are usually deducted from the first year’s tuition fees. Always check the university’s official website or contact admissions for course-specific requirements, as policies may change. EU and UK students generally follow different fee structures, with deposits less common for home students.
