When deciding to join a university, we know that one of the first things you think about is your budget, the cost of tuition fees and how to fund your time at the university.

The ¹ú²úÊÓƵ wants to help our students as much as we can by keeping our tuition fees as low as possible and by giving you additional support through our scholarship schemes.

Tuition fees are reviewed annually and usually increase in line with inflation.

The UK Government has announced that it will increase home tuition fees by 3.1% from the 2025/26 academic cycle. Subject to approval, the University intends to increase our tuition fees in line with this and as per our terms and conditions. This means that from September 2025 our standard annual undergraduate home and EU tuition fee will be £9,535. 

Scholarships, bursaries and discounts 

Students have to be studying full-time to be eligible for any of the scholarships and bursaries.  Only one scholarship or bursary can be redeemed by each student, with the exception of the early payment discount which can be added to any other amount.

The scholarships and bursaries do not apply to our graduate entry Medicine MBChB course, but students are still eligible for the early payment discount.
