Tuition fees
Your tuition fee varies according to your chosen course, your level of study, your chosen mode of study and whether you are eligible to pay European Union (EU) or international fees (which depends on your nationality and residency over the past three years).
To find out the cost of tuition fees for your chosen course, you can look on the individual prospectus course page. Select your course and scroll down on the 'overview' tab to see the fee information.
In the tables below, you can see an outline guide of how much tuition fees cost for courses starting in 2016/17. Tuition fee costs are for the duration of your course (unless otherwise stated):

All students from countries within the European Union are eligible to pay home (UK) tuition fee rates and can access a tuition fee loan to cover the fees which does not have to be repaid until after you graduate. Students who wish to study a masters programme can consider applying for a postgraduate loan of up to £10,000 from Student Finance England. Some students may be eligible for The Erasmus+ Master loan.
For UK/EU students who start an undergraduate course in 2017/18, your tuition fees are subject to government legislation anticipated in autumn 2016, and will be confirmed in due course.
Tuition fees for EU nationals will remain the same as tuition fees for UK students commencing their studies in the academic years 2016/17 and 2017/18.
This means that non-UK EU students joining a course in these years will pay the same fees as UK students for the duration of their course.
