Undergraduate fees

How can
we help?

OK, so sorting your finances out won't be the most exciting part of your degree, but it is important. And once you've got this checked off, you can get on with the interesting stuff!

If you're interested in Postgraduate fees, head this way...

How much does it cost?

For 2025/26, our undergraduate tuition fees are £9,535 per year, a year abroad is charged at £1,430, and a year in industry is £1,907. Accelerated degrees are £11,440.* Be sure to double-check your course page because some programmes vary slightly.

Remember, you won't start paying your fees back until you've left University and earn above the repayment threshold (currently £25,000). In the meantime, you can apply for a maintenance loan to help cover your living costs.

If that wasn't enough, you'll be living in one of the UK's most affordable cities. Take a look and see how much you can save on those important essentials like gym membership and your daily caffeine fix.

* These fees are subject to increases in line with inflation. Maximum tuition fees are set by the government. 

How do I pay?
