Understanding the finances
Students starting at UCS in September will be charged £8000 for a full-time Bachelors degree or £7500 for a full-time Foundation degree.
All students can apply for a tuition fee loan so no fees have to be paid upfront. UK students starting their first degree can also receive a maintenance loan and some students may be eligible for the National Scholarship Programme or Suffolk Access Champion Scheme.
