Inbound to Regent's

Living and studying in another country is one of the most exciting adventures you’ll take. Not only is it a great way to develop your confidence and communication skills, but you’ll also make new friends, gain new perspectives and build valuable relationships. Join us for a term or two, or take part in an exciting six- or twelve-week summer programme.

Studying at Regent’s means you’ll be part of one of the UK’s most cosmopolitan universities – mixing with students and staff from over 140 nationalities. While you’re here, you’ll join lessons, lectures and live projects with full-time students – partnering with businesses and brands to bring your learning to life, provide industry insights and put your skills to the test.

Read our brochure on why you should make Regent's your choice for study abroad.

We welcome applications from students nominated through our partnership network, as well as applications from independent study abroad students who wish to study at Regent's for a short period of time as part of their degree.

When completing your online application, you’ll also be asked to choose your modules. You can register for modules across most subjects, but you're more likely to avoid timetable clashes if you choose from similar levels and areas. The maximum number of credits you can take is 40 ECTS, although we believe 25-30 ECTS offers a more balanced workload.

Choosing your modules

Before you submit your choices, please read each module specification carefully and discuss your preferences with your home university. This is a detailed description of a module’s content, readings, learning outcomes, teaching approaches and assessment methods. You’ll find these linked on the pages above. It’s your responsibility to:

• Assess whether a module is suitable for your academic path
• Not choose modules that you’ve already studied or are currently studying
• Check how many credits you need to take while at Regent’s
• Ensure the modules you choose amount to the correct credit load

Bear in mind that you’re not allowed to try out a module to see if you like it. The timetabling process is a complex procedure and once you’re assigned to a module, it’s not possible to reassign you to a different one unless there’s a valid academic reason to do so, such as:

• Not being able to graduate without a specific module
• Not being able to come to Regent's unless you take a specific module
• Not being able to transfer credits for certain modules

If you need to change your modules for an academic reason, you can do so at the beginning of term. This will need to be supported by a written confirmation from your university.

Although we try our hardest to accommodate your preferences, we can’t guarantee you’ll be given your first choices (due to timetable clashes and cancellations). Therefore, as part of your application, we ask you to select at least one alternative for every first-choice module. If we’re unable to offer any of these, we’ll be in touch prior to your arrival. You’ll be able to view your final timetable after completing registration at Welcome Week.

Understanding module levels

At Regent’s, undergraduate modules sit at levels 4-6.

• Level 4: Introductory modules offered in the first year of a bachelor’s degree. The first number in the module code is a 4 (e.g., BUS415).
• Level 5: Intermediate modules offered in the second year of a bachelor’s degree. The first number in the module code is a 5 (e.g., MDC501). You should only select Level 5 modules if you have relevant prior knowledge of the subject.
• Level 6: Advanced modules offered in the final year of a bachelor’s degree. The first number in the module code is a 6 (e.g., STG602). You should only select Level 6 modules if you have relevant prior knowledge of the subject.

Any questions? Email us with your full name, the name of your home university and your Regent’s ID number (if you have one) so we can advise swiftly.

We tend to open applications four to six months before term starts. You can find all the information you need on our digital factsheet.

• £5,000 for a two-term programme

A student who decides to withdraw from their programme may be eligible for a refund of any tuition fees paid in excess of the deposit if they notify the University in writing by email to [email protected] at least 14 calendar days before the start of the academic term. For the purposes of this policy, the start of the academic term is defined as the first day of Welcome Week.

Partner Universities and Providers paying on behalf of students

Partner University and Provider payment and cancellation policy

The Partner University or Provider must pay all invoices issued by Regent's University London within 30 calendar days of receipt.

A student's place on a Regent's inbound study abroad programme is not guaranteed until they have formally accepted their offer through the Regent's e:Student portal.

Students have 10 calendar days from the date of their unconditional offer letter to accept their place. Offers will remain valid after this deadline; however, the University may not be able to guarantee the student's place.

Once a student has accepted their offer through the Regent's e:Student portal, the Partner University or Provider becomes liable for a non-refundable cancellation fee of £1,000, even if the student subsequently withdraws.

An invoice for tuition fees and, where applicable, accommodation fees will be issued approximately 4-5 weeks before the start of the programme. Payment must be made within 30 calendar days of receipt of the invoice.

Payments must be made via Flywire using the payment instructions provided on the invoice. The University does not accept cash payments. All payments must be received in full in British Pounds (GBP). Any bank charges, currency conversion costs, transfer fees, or other associated costs are the responsibility of the Partner University or Provider.

Partner University and Provider refund policy

The £1,000 cancellation fee becomes non-refundable once a student has accepted their place through the Regent's e:Student portal and will be retained by the University.

A Partner University or Provider may be eligible for a refund of tuition fees paid in excess of the cancellation fee if the student withdraws and Regent's receives written notice by email to [email protected] at least 14 calendar days before the start of the academic term. For the purposes of this policy, the start of the academic term is defined as the first day of Welcome Week.

No tuition fee refund, accommodation fee refund, credit, or fee reduction will be granted where a student withdraws after this deadline or voluntarily leaves the programme following enrolment.

For any questions regarding payments or refunds, please contact [email protected].

Changes to module availability

The University reserves the right to amend module offerings.

If a module selected by a student is withdrawn, cancelled, or otherwise unavailable, no refund will be issued. The University will make reasonable efforts to offer a suitable alternative module that aligns, as closely as possible, with the student's academic requirements and learning objectives.

Visa refusal

Students whose visa application has been refused may be considered for a refund of tuition fees upon providing an official visa refusal letter issued by the relevant UK immigration authority. This should be submitted to [email protected].

However, neither the tuition fee deposit nor the £1,000 Partner University or Provider cancellation fee (as applicable) will be refunded if the visa refusal results from either:

• the submission of fraudulent, forged, false, or counterfeit documents
• adverse immigration history that was not disclosed to the University during the admissions process.

Visa refusal does not affect your statutory rights.  

To minimise the risk of visa refusal, all students planning to study in the UK are strongly recommended to follow visa advice offered by education agents or official visa agencies in their home country.  

Students planning to study in the UK either with or without the help of education agents in their country will be offered free visa guidance from Regent’s University London’s Admissions and Student Immigration & Compliance teams, provided they have a CAS issued by Regent’s University London.  

However, all students should be aware that the final decision for the grant of any visa is made by the UK Home Office. Accordingly, Regent’s University London does not accept responsibility of any kind for either the counselling offered by the Regent’s University London Visa Advisor or any decision to reject, defer or otherwise not accept a visa application by the UK Home Office.
