Fees, Finance & Funding

Tuition Fees are payable in full prior to the start of the course or programme. If you are a Tier 4 student then the fees will need to be paid prior to the issuing of your CAS.

Fees for EU and international students detailed below.

We pride ourselves in being committed to offering students accessible and affordable quality programmes. Please note, fees are correct at the time of publication and may be subject to change.

(Fees detailed exclude costs for international students who need a pre-sessional English course and ongoing in-year English language support.)

You will be supported by our admissions team throughout the application process and the following methods can be used to pay your fees:

There are two rates of fee: one is for students who are ordinarily resident in the United Kingdom and who meet the necessary criteria, and one is for students who are ordinarily resident in overseas countries and/or do not meet the necessary immigration criteria. All applications will be fee assessed and you will be contacted if any further information is required to establish your fee status.

Living costs vary depending on individual circumstances and lifestyle. We would recommend that a single student should budget around £7200 for one academic year to cover costs including rent, utilities, food, clothes, books, travel, and personal expenses for socialising and entertainment.
