Full-time tuition fees for UK students
If you are a UK student enrolling on a standard-length Foundation Degree or a BA/BSc at University College Birmingham, your fee for this academic year will be £9,250. A half-year tuition fee is £4,625.
Fee for accelerated (2 years) course is £11,100 for the 2023/24 academic year.
- This is a yearly fee and will increase with inflation in subsequent years (in line with any government-permitted rise).
- If you are an English student studying your first higher education qualification, you can apply for a tuition fee loan from Student Finance England. You’ll only start making repayments if your income is over £25,000 a year. You won’t be expected to make repayments until April 2026 at the earliest. This is applicable to students starting their course on or after 1 August 2023.
- If you live in Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland, you should apply to SAAS, Student Finance Wales or Student Finance Northern Ireland. The loans and grants available to you will differ from those available from Student Finance England.
- University College Birmingham does not charge UK students for 24 or 48-week placements.
