Fees and admissions for International students

Applying for your place at Kings School of Art and Design

If you think that our school could be the place for you, we would be delighted to hear from you.

Applying is straightforward.

You can apply direct through our Application form or through your local educational partner agent.

If you need help with finding a recommended agent please contact us.

Once we receive your application we will respond within 48 hours.

How to pay

You can choose to pay in three different ways:

• by credit/debit card or bank transfer through our partner Flywire (used to be Uni-Pay)
• by bank transfer directly to a Kings account
• by credit/debit card over the phone

When applying for a programme, you can choose whether to pay full fees or only the Acceptance Payment, unless you are booking less than a month before the course start. In this case you would need to pay full fees.

Paying through Flywire

Flywire is an international payment and collection provider for overseas student fees that has been designed specifically for universities and language schools.

When you submit a booking or application with Kings and you choose to use Flywire, your details will be received and reviewed by the registrars in each of our colleges.

If we have a place on the course you want, the registrar will accept your booking and you will receive an email to request payment of either a deposit or full fees through Flywire. This email will contain a link to go to the Flywire website where you will be able to either pay securely online via card or get details of the local Flywire bank account you will need to pay into.

The advantage of using Flywire rather than pay directly to a Kings bank account is that Flywire allows you to pay in your local currency with a £7 one-off charge and this, most of the time, means you are paying less than what you would pay for an international bank transfer.

Paying by bank transfer directly to a Kings account

Please send the payment to the bank of the College you have selected (see below for bank details). Bank/wire transfers take 2–4 weeks to arrive. Full payment must be received four weeks before the date of arrival. Please include all bank charges in your payment and quote the student’s full name on the transfer. Please email a copy of the bank/wire transfer to Kings on acceptance of the offer and keep a copy of the transfer to take to the College with you.
