Review

  1. "Accounting & Finance has provided me with the fundamental skills to not only approach the (graduate) role in the first place, but do so confidently knowing I am well equipped to deal with whatever is thrown at me. Mixed with our traditional academic modules were more practical modules focusing on employability and real-life skills."

  2. I chose to study at University of Bradford because it is the most acclaimed university UK.

How much do I pay to block my seat?
Annual course fees are calculated based on a standard annual study load of 48 credit points. Except for graduate certificates which are half the annual study load or 24 points.
Refund Policy: (Programs without prep-session component)
Student must pay applicable caution money for the enrolment of the course. This will be adjustable against the total course fee payable by the student.
You can claim a refund for the fee paid at any time before the cohort start date by sending an email request to your Student Mentor and Admissions Counsellor with reasons listed. There shall be no refund applicable once the program has started. This is applicable even for those students who could not complete their payment, and could not be enrolled in the batch opted for. However, the student can avail pre-deferral as per the policy defined below for the same.

Deferral Policy: (Post Program Commencement)
If a student is facing severe issues in dedicating time to the course, we provide the opportunity for the student to defer to another batch.
A student can request for deferral only once and to either of the scheduled cohorts to start in the next 1 year to either of the next two consecutive cohorts from the start date of the initial batch in which the student was originally enrolled for.
The student will be required to pay a deferral fees of INR 30,000 along with the differential program fees between the two cohorts, if any.
The deferral request will be approved once the deferral fee is paid.
Till this is completed, the student will be assumed to be continuing in the same cohort.
The student has 7 days (including holidays and weekends) from the date of deferral request to make the payment of the deferral fee post which the deferral request will expire, and the student will continue as part of the current cohort.
If the student completes the deferral payment, the student's login will be disabled, the student will leave the deferred cohort and the student will start learning on the new cohort from the point of the last assignment that was graded in the deferred cohort. All grades and progress until that point will be carried forward as it is to the new cohort. For clarification, the grades of the graded assignments will be carried forward, whether or not the student had submitted these grading during the initial stage.
The deferral can only be requested during the batch for which the student has enrolled is ongoing. Once the batch has completed, deferral requests shall not be entertained. For clarification, the batch completion here shall mean the "last grace deadline" as communicated by upGrad.
Deferral Policy: (Pre Program Commencement)
If a student, due to unavoidable circumstances is unable to commence with the cohort and requests for a deferral before the cohort starts, we provide the opportunity for the student to defer to another batch.
However, the student will be required to pay 50% of the total course fee amount (inclusive of taxes) before the deferral can be approved. Till this is completed, the student will be assumed to be continuing in the same cohort.
A student can request for deferral only once and to either of the scheduled cohorts to start in the next 1 year to either of the next two consecutive cohorts from the start date of the initial batch in which the student was originally enrolled for.
The student has time till the current cohort launch date to make the payment of the 50% program fee, post which the deferral request will expire. Once the deferral window expires and the student now asks for a refund, the above-mentioned applicable refund policy will apply.
The fee applicable to the deferred student will be as per prevailing fee for the batch student has opted to defer to (No additional deferral fee is required to be paid). The student shall be liable to pay the differential program fees between the two cohorts if any.
