HE Tuition Fees*
An annual tuition fee of £3,290 is payable by all students on full time undergraduate courses for 2010 entry. You do not have to find this money up front as you can apply for a tuition fee loan from the Students Loan Company to cover the cost.
Tuition fees will rise slightly each following year in line with inflation and subject to government regulations.
Student loans do not start to be repaid until the April after you have left your course, and you only repay a percentage of your income, so repayments are based on the amount you earn and not on the amount you owe.
