      Reduced tuition fees for ABE students

      Our partnership with ABE means that students who progress onto a Middlesex degree from ABE may be eligible for a bursary toward their tuition fees*.

      Students with an ABE QCF Diploma (level 4) equivalent or higher, will receive a 20% reduction* on their tuition fees for their first year of study on a Middlesex degree. The bursary is available for courses at all four of our campuses; London, Dubai and Mauritius.

      In addition, eight students (two per campus) who have achieved the highest average mark in their relevant ABE examinations will be awarded a 50% reduction* on their tuition fees for the year.

      Discounts will only be offered for direct applications to Middlesex university made via the Middle East, Africa and Pakistan Regional Office.

      How to apply

      To apply or if you have any queries, please contact our Middle East, Africa and Pakistan Regional Office.

      *Bursary full terms and conditions

      • Middlesex University provides all ABE students with a 20% discount on the cost of their fee for the first year of their course at Middlesex University at any of its campuses in London, Mauritius and Dubai.
      • The highest scoring ABE student who applies for each campus on each intake will receive a 50% discount (instead of the 20% discount).Thus the 50% discount applies to the eight ABE students (two at each of the four campuses) each year who apply to Middlesex University who have achieved the highest average mark in their relevant ABE examinations (compared to the other ABE applicants to Middlesex University for the same entry period and campus). For London and Dubai the two 50% discount places are split one each between the two intakes but as there is only one intake in Mauritius, the 50% discount will apply to the top two students there. ABE will advise Middlesex University which ABE student has achieved the highest score.
      • The discount from the course fee applies to all Middlesex University courses from a one year top up to a three year course, but only applies for the first year irrespective of the number of years in the course.  No discount or funding is offered for any accommodation, living, travel, visa or other expenses as these will be the responsibility of the individual student.
      • The ABE student must obtain an ABE QCF Diploma (Level 4) or higher, as required for the appropriate Middlesex University course, and must also satisfy any specific entry requirements from Middlesex University for the course.
      • All applications must be made direct to the University's Gulf Regional Office and not to the campuses and not through an agent.
