Fees, funding and costs

Our online degree courses are a cost-effective alternative to traditional on-campus options. We also offer support with funding – in the form of postgraduate scholarships, undergraduate bursaries for low-income families and flexible payment options.

If you’re a UK resident, you may also be eligible for a government student loan to cover the cost of tuition. If you decide to self-fund your degree, you can benefit from a fee reduction of 2% (all courses) when paying annually in advance, or 10% (undergraduate courses only) if you pay for your course in full at the start of your studies.

Tuition fees are the same for both UK and international students. International students can benefit from up to 60% off tuition.
