Postgraduate fees (UK students)

We can tell you the price of a postgraduate degree - but that's not the same as its value. You really can't put a price on turning your dream into reality.

September 2024 and January 2025 entry

Some specialist courses are charged differently, with a non-standard fee. This fee is listed on the relevant course page. Otherwise, our standard fees are as follows:

  • £6,710 for a standard tier full-time taught postgraduate degree (MA/MSc) or £750 for 20 credits for part-time
  • £7,365 for an enhanced tier full-time taught postgraduate degree (MA/MSc) or £820 for 20 credits for part-time
  • £8,650 (£4,325 a year) for a standard tier two year full-time postgraduate degree (MA/MSc) or £750 for 20 credits for part-time
  • £9,540 (£4,770 a year) for an enhanced tier two year full-time postgraduate degree (MA/MSc) or £820 for 20 credits for part-time
  • £2,238 for a standard tier full-time postgraduate certificate (PgCert) or £750 for 20 credits for part-time
  • £2,460 for an enhanced tier full-time postgraduate certificate (PgCert) or £820 for 20 credits for part-time
  • £4,500 for a standard tier full-time postgraduate diploma (PgDip) or £750 for 20 credits for part-time
  • £4,920 for an enhanced tier full-time postgraduate diploma (PgDip) or £820 for 20 credits for part-time
  • £4,400 a year for a standard tier full-time research degree or £2,200 for part-time per year
  • £6,000 a year for an enhanced tier full-time research degree or £3,000 for part-time per year
  • The research degree writing up fee is £650*.

Enhanced fees are charged for certain programmes to reflect the higher costs associated with these disciplines. The fee applicable will be clearly stated in your offer letter.

*After a period of three years (five years for part-time students), and once the data gathering and analysis phase of the project is completed, students are entitled to a period of one year (two years for part-time students) at which a reduced writing-up fee is payable. If work is not submitted for examination within the designated writing-up period, the fee will normally revert to the standard fee for the following year.

EU students

Due to the UK's withdrawal from the EU, the UK Government issued new eligibility rules for home fee status and student finance from the 2021-22 academic year. For EU Students, this means that, subject to certain exceptions, you are not eligible for home fee status and student finance from 1 August 2021. Please refer to the full eligibility rules for full details.
