University of Northampton: Reviews, Courses, and 2026 Fees

Ans: For the 2026/27 academic year, standard undergraduate (BSc) tuition is £15,700 and most postgraduate (MSc) courses are £17,495. If you submit your complete application before 31 May 2026, you automatically receive the £1,000 Early Bird discount, bringing the fee down to £14,700 for BSc and £16,495 for MSc (approximately ₹17.16 lakh and ₹19.25 lakh at current ₹116.5/GBP rate). This discount is applied without any separate form—just meet the deadline and accept your offer.

Ans: No, the University of Northampton follows a rolling admissions policy with no official closing dates for most courses. However, popular programs like Computing, Psychology, Business Management, and Accounting & Finance often fill up 4–5 months before the September start. For Indian students, the safest application window is December 2025 to April 2026. Applying early also ensures faster CAS issuance and gives you priority for accommodation and scholarships.

Ques: How much money do I need to show in my bank account for the UK student visa? Ans: You must prove you have £12,006 (9 months of living costs for Northampton, outside London) plus the remaining tuition fee after paying the £5,000 deposit. For example: if your total fee is £16,995 and you pay £5,000 deposit, you need to show £11,995 + £12,006 = £24,001 (≈ ₹28 lakh). The funds must be in your (or your parent’s) savings account for at least 28 consecutive days before the visa application, and you’ll need a bank letter or statement as proof.

Ans: Yes—100% accommodation is guaranteed for all international students who accept their offer and apply for housing before 31 July 2026. Most Indian students choose ensuite rooms in halls like St John’s, Scholars Green or Waterside, costing £5,800–£7,200 for a 39-week contract (September–June). The university even offers free airport pickup from Heathrow or Birmingham if you book two weeks in advance.
