Fees & Funding

SOLT fees are structured as affordable monthly payments, with different amounts depending on your country.

For up-to-date amounts, please see our Fees page.

SOLT strives to make study accessible. Most students pay their own fees, sometimes with support from family, friends, or church. Limited partial bursaries are available for students in financial need, typically reducing fees by one-third to two-thirds, depending on circumstances and available funds. The fees are the same for all three levels.

How our bursaries and sponsorships work

Our bursary fund is limited and mainly supports those with genuine financial need. Everyone is encouraged to contribute something monthly, where possible. Bursaries are usually partial, for example 33%, 50% or 66% of the fees.
We make bursary decisions before each term, based on available funds.

Each term we have a limited number of partial bursaries available, and these places usually fill quickly.
