Overseas Students

A formal assessment of your fee status will be made by the University Admissions Office following receipt of your formal application. As a guide, a student qualifies to pay tuition fees at the Home/EU rate if they are a UK (or EU) national who has been resident within the UK (or EU) for a qualifying period of three years before the beginning of their programme of study, and providing that their residence has not been wholly or primarily for the purpose of receiving full-time education. A small number of students also qualify under specific exemptions to that given above.
