You should expect to pay tuition fees for every year of study. The University may increase fees in the second and subsequent years of your course at our discretion in line with any inflationary or other uplift, as decided by the UK Government, up to the maximum amount for fees permitted by UK law or regulation for that academic year. To give students an indication of the likely scale of any future increase, the UK government has recently suggested that increases may be linked to RPIX ( Retail Price Index excluding mortgage interest payments)**

Student fee loans have risen in line with the fee cap.

Part-Time courses vary according to their length. To obtain the most accurate tuition fee information for a specific course please refer to your University offer letter. If a student is being sponsored by their employment, the university will require proof of sponsorship.
