If you are not a UK citizen, you can use the UKCISA website to confirm if you need to pay an ‘overseas’ fee.
If you are enrolling on one of our courses that are not funded, such as our leisure courses, you will be required to pay the course fee in full.
If you are not a UK citizen or if you have not been resident in the UK or EEA for the past 3 years, you can use the UKCISA website to confirm whether you will need to pay a 'home' or 'overseas' fee.

Please note: The fees quoted on our website for level 3 programmes are an annual fee, which may not be split evenly between the two academic years. We recommend that students deciding to apply for an Advanced Learner Loan to pay for their course, apply for a loan to cover both years to ensure the funds are secured at the start of the programme. Please contact us if you require more information about our course fees.
Advanced Learner Loan
If you are studying on a full-time Level 3 or 4 programme (not as part of an apprenticeship), you may be eligible to apply for a loan to help you pay your tuition fees. These loans are not means-tested or subject to credit checks, and you start repaying the loan when you earn over £27,295 per year.
Loans for Access to Higher education programmes are cleared if you go on to complete a higher education programme with the support of a higher education student loan.
