Tuition Fees

Your tuition fees will be one of the main considerations when deciding if you can afford to go to university. Luckily for you though, help is at hand.

Full-time Tuition Fees
Despite pressure put on the government, tuition fees are set to rise each year. It is important you understand this when considering a three-year programme.

The maximum fee for students for the 2009/2010 academic year is £3,225

Exactly how much of this you will be charged will depend on your individual university or college. So make sure you find out when considering your degree as it could be a deciding factor.

Part-time Tuition Fees
At present, there is no fee guidelines set in place by universities or colleges for part-time programmes. Therefore, check with your university or college on this and also ask if the fees are likely to rise during your studies.

Student Loans
Don’t let the tuition fees put you off attending university if you really want to go. Each year thousands of students take out Student Loans and successfully pay them back.
