• For most of our Masters level programmes we require a good first degree in a relevant subject. From most Indian Universities, this means an overall score of 55% or above.
• We will consider students whose grades are slightly lower than this (52% or above) Universities of Delhi/ Mumbai/ Calcutta/ Madras/ Pune/ Bangalore/ Rajasthan and this will depend on other factors, such as any relevant work experience, the quality of the references you can provide etc.

The cost of studying at Heriot Watt University varies largely depending on the type of university and the degree chosen. More often than not, humanities, arts, and education courses are less expensive than degrees in medical, engineering, or management. Furthermore, students who choose to study at the postgraduate level typically pay higher tuition fees, which again vary depending on the programme chosen. 

Most universities provide scholarships or financial aid to students in order to help them offset their tuition costs. Students should be aware that additional course fees and incidental expenses may not be included in tuition. On average, international students can expect to pay £26,976 annually, to study in Heriot Watt University.
