Fees - 2010/2011
Programme and course fees for 2010/2011
What are the costs?
As someone who is interested in finance, you will understand that cost is related to value. All of our programmes represent good value for money for two reasons. The first is that you will receive the qualification supported by the reputation, rigour and prestige of SOAS and the University of London. At a more practical level, the programmes represent good value for money because included within the fees is everything that you need: textbooks, tutoring, all of your materials, access to the Online Study Centre - a complete package
Whilst we incorporate all of the costs into your course fees, you may incur local costs depending on your country of residence, such as:
- fees paid to local examination centres for sitting your examinations
- customs duties/taxes where these are payable on education materials.

Help with meeting expenses
There are a number of sources of funding available that can help you to meet the cost of your study. Some of these are based in the UK and others are available from certain countries around the world. You can find a general guide to sources of funding for international students on the British Council website. We also suggest that you enquire in your own country to see whether assistance is available.
Employers
We find that a large number of our students receive some financial support from their own employers and it is worth enquiring about this. If they want to know more about what you will be studying or more about SOAS or the University of London, we are very happy to provide all the information your employer will need.
Canada
If you are a Canadian citizen, you may be able to apply for tax reductions if you are undertaking higher education. For more information about tax reductions for Canadian students who are studying outside Canada, visit the website for the Canadian Revenue Agency
USA
If you are a US veteran, or dependent, you may have Department of Veterans Affairs or Americorps funding. Educational loans are not currently available for distance learning programmes at foreign schools but you may still apply for a private non-educational loan.
Fees FAQs
Can I get a refund if I no longer want to study the course?
Once course materials are received, the fees for that course become non-refundable.
I require an invoice or my bank will not allow me to transfer money out of the country. How can I get one?
Contact your Administrator and ask to be sent an invoice.
