The UK Government has confirmed that the maximum tuition fee for UK Home undergraduate and Initial Teacher Training students studying in England will increase to £9,535 for the 2025-26 academic year.

The university will charge the maximum approved fee, which is an increase of £285.

You do not need to do anything.

If you pay your fees directly to the university, you will receive a charge notification once you have completed registration and module enrolment for the 2025-26 academic year.

If you have a tuition fee loan, the additional fees will be covered by your student loan. The increase will not affect your monthly student loan repayments after finishing university. For a student loan, the amount you pay depends on how much you earn over the repayment threshold, not how much you borrowed during your studies.

Taking a year in industry/study abroad in 2025-26? 

If you’re undertaking a placement, year in industry or year abroad in 2025-26, you will, as usual, pay a proportion of the full tuition fee.

Please see the exceptional fees webpage for more information.

If you have any questions about this change, you can contact the Student Enquiry Centre online, ask our staff a question on live chat, or visit a Student Service Centre from Monday-Friday, 9am-5pm.
