GCU London open day offers course discounts

A London-based university is giving a helping hand to early bird students who attend its upcoming open day by offering course discounts of up to 18 per cent.

GCU London – a campus of Glasgow Caledonian University based in the capital’s east end and a stone’s throw from the financial hub of the City – is hosting an open day for prospective students on November 14th.

Students who apply for a course at the prestigious post-graduate university on the day will get £1500 off their fees if accepted. This will reduce the price for domestic students on MSc courses from £8,400 to £6,900 – giving many prospective students a financial boost. The discount also applies to international students.

Stephen Holt, Head of GCU London, said: “At GCU London we understand the financial implications of studying today, and we hope our fee discount will go somewhere towards assisting students from all backgrounds to be able to pursue their chosen career path.”

Visitors to the Fashion Street campus will also be shown around the state-of-art facilities and given an insight into student life at GCU London.

The university offers a range of Masters and professionally-accredited courses, including the only UK MBA in Luxury Brand Marketing.

New in January is the MSc/Postgraduate Diploma in Web Systems Development which offers a solid grounding in the advance practice in developing web systems using Microsoft’s .NET technology. GCU London is based within the capital’s newly established Tech City and this course offers students the chance to study in this up-and-coming technology hub.

Both academics and GCU London’s student support team will be on hand throughout the day, with ‘taster’ lectures and free English language testing as well as tours of campus on offer GCU London offers a host of courses highly regarded by international employers and backed by industry experts. Post-graduate courses available include Banking and Finance, Management, International Business, Risk Management, International Human Resource Management, Public Health and Project and Construction Management.

Mr Holt added: “Our industry-specific courses are widely recognised and we attract students from all over the world, our discount therefore applies to students from all countries. We hope our open day will give prospective students from the UK and further afield an insight into studying at our Spitalfields campus, which is situated in the heart of the capital’s fashion, banking and technology districts.”
