Academic Fees

Academic fees must be paid by or on behalf of all registered students at the University. The fee includes charges for tuition, examination, registration and a contribution towards the cost of student amenities. It does not include fees for accommodation,meals and other personal items.

Academic fees are charged at the start of each year and are subject to inflationary increases for each year of your course as determined by the University. Students whose course incorporates an intercalated year will be required to pay up to 50% of the full year fees for the year in which they are away from the University (with the exception of ERASMUS students).

Students paying fees directly to the University are given the option to pay by direct debit in instalments. Details of this are published annually in the Student Finance Guide provided to all students and available from the Student Finance website.

Fee Loans will be available from the Student Loan Company (SLC) for ALL eligible full-time undergraduate students who pay fees at the Home/EU fee rates. Students wishing to defer the payment of their fees until they have finished their course will be able to take out a fee loan with the SLC for each year of their course including intercalated years. The SLC will pay the relevant fees to the University on behalf of the student each year. The fee loan will need to be repaid once students have finished their studies and are earning more than £21,000.

Students not wishing to take out a fee loan will pay their fees directly to the University at the start of each academic year.
