Fees for future years of study

We explain who sets our tuition fees, when they get published and where you can find them.

Future fees

We only publish tuition fees for the current academic year and for one year in advance.

Who sets fees?

Some tuition fees are set for us by the Scottish Government, UK Government and by UK Research and Innovation (UKRI). Others are set by our Student Recruitment and Fee Strategy Group. Fees are also set in collaboration with other institutions when we share a degree programme. 

When are fees released?

Tuition fees are normally released to the University at the start of each calendar year. However, some fees can take longer to be confirmed.

This includes fees that are set for us by:

  • the Scottish Government
  • UK Government 
  • UK Research and Innovation

Fees for new degree programmes are released and published throughout the year, whenever each programme is ready.

When and where are fees published?

Undergraduate tuition fees are published in the summer, before prospective students can submit an application through UCAS.

Postgraduate tuition fees are published in the summer before programmes open for applications.

Postgraduate research tuition fees are confirmed in the first quarter of the calendar year.

You can find them on our degree finder pages and on this website.
