Fees and funding

There is support from Government funding bodies and the University to help with the cost of tuition fees and living expenses.

The support you receive will depend on a range of factors, including your financial circumstances and where you currently live. Sometimes students assume they will not be eligible for funding at all when they are, so it is really important to explore whether you meet eligibility criteria.

Government funding

Government funding bodies like Student Awards Agency Scotland (SAAS) and Student Finance England provide support for both tuition fees and living costs.
