What it costs

What would you pay?

Fees are set nationally, not by each university: in 2026–27 an English university can charge a home student up to £9,790 a year, and so can a Welsh one; Northern Ireland’s charge their own students up to £4,985; Scottish students pay no tuition fee at a Scottish university. Further education colleges are free for most 16 to 18 year olds. There is no family-by-family price to show, so this page doesn’t make one up.
