Are you eligible for an alumni discount?
In order to qualify for an alumni discount, you AND the course you wish to take must be eligible. The alumni discount excludes courses leading to PGCE and Master of Architecture qualifications and does not apply to courses of four year full-time study leading to MEng, MPharm or similar qualifications.
The alumni discount does not apply to students undertaking courses that are equivalent to or lower than qualifications already achieved. This is because students are not progressing to a higher level qualification. An exception to this criteria applies to students who hold a University of Portsmouth undergraduate and PGCE qualification, or a full stand-alone master's, who will be eligible to receive an alumni discount if they are undertaking a full Master's qualification.
If you AND your course ARE BOTH eligible you can claim 20% off your tuition fees.
Please note: alumni discounts are only applicable to students paying their own fees. If you are part sponsored, the discount will be applied to the self-paying part only.
