Sponsored Students

You can only select this option if your institution is one of our UoE approved sponsors.

If your sponsor is not one of our approved sponsors, you will need to accept your contract using one of the other alternative method of payment, such as by instalments or payment in full. Please contact us at accom.rentenquiries@ed.ac.uk if you need us to send you a copy of your invoice, so your sponsor can make the payment to us.

Pay in Full

Payment can be made using a debit/credit card or by bank transfer using Western Union Business Solutions. Simply select the country you are paying from, get a quote and you will be sent your payment instructions to allow you to make your payment. You can track your payment status through every step.
