Fees and costs

Original currency is authoritative. Each price keeps its basis (per year, per credit, whole program), academic year and student category, and is never converted. Annual tuition and whole-program tuition are different figures.

ItemAmountApplies toDated

Calculated tuition total: £97,800 (International students). Calculated from published annual tuition for 2027/28 entry x 3 years. It assumes no fee changes and excludes studio, materials, printing, software and other charges.

Studio fees, materials, model-making, printing, software, equipment, field trips and residencies are not listed by the institution on the pages we checked; architecture students often meet such costs.
