An international student based at the Nottingham campus will be charged the normal international fee for the period of their study in Nottingham and the relevant campus international fee for the period at an international campus.

A student based at one of the international campuses will be charged the relevant international campus fee for the period of their study at that campus. For any period of study at the Nottingham campus they will be charged the relevant occasional international postgraduate research student fee (see below); for any period of study at a second international campus they will be charged the relevant international campus fee for that second campus.

In all cases, for periods of study less than one year the fee charged will be pro-rata to the full year fee quoted in this schedule.
