The University of Essex requires an initial deposit for international students to secure their place. For most courses, this deposit is £3,000, which is deducted from the first year’s tuition fees. The amount may vary for specific programs or if you’re a sponsored student.
Payment deadlines depend on your offer conditions, but it’s typically due after accepting an unconditional offer. EU and UK students usually don’t need to pay this deposit. Always check the university’s official website or your offer letter for precise details, as policies may change.
