Fees for continuing students – 2026/27 and 2027/28
This page provides tuition fee information for full-time students continuing their studies in the 2026/27 and 2027/28 academic years.
Fees for new students are available on the relevant course pages.
Home students: undergraduate and regulated postgraduate courses
The Government has increased the maximum tuition fee for regulated full-time courses to £9,790 for 2026/27 and £10,050 for 2027/28. These fees will apply to continuing students studying regulated courses.
Your tuition fee may also change if you:
- Change your mode of study (for example, from part-time to full-time)
- Take an Interruption of Studies
- Receive a fee waiver, refund or bursary
If any of these apply, the University will inform you of the fee payable.
Home students: postgraduate taught courses
The University reserves the right to increase fees for subsequent years of study in line with increases in inflation (capped at 5%) or to reflect changes in Government funding policies or changes agreed by Parliament.
For 2026/27 and 2027/28, the University agreed an increase of 3.5% to non-regulated home fees for continuing students, rounded to the nearest £10.
To identify your fee, find the fee applicable to your previous year of study and then refer to the corresponding fee for the next academic year (before any bursaries or fee waivers are applied).

Part-time fees
If you are studying part-time, the fee charged will be pro-rated from the full-time fee (rounded to the nearest £1) and based on the number of credits studied in each year. For example:
- If you are studying an undergraduate course, a typical full-time load would be 120 credits per year. If you are studying part-time and are studying 60 credits, you will pay 50% of the full-time fee
- If you are studying a postgraduate course, a typical full-time load is 180 credits per year. If you study 100 credits, you will pay approximately 55% of the full-time fee.
If you are studying under a different mode of study or fee arrangement, different tuition fees may apply. The University will advise you of the fee payable in your individual circumstances.
