Postgraduate taught fee policy

Our policy explains what your annual tuition fees cover, when you have to pay, your responsibilities, and taught postgraduate tuition fee yearly increases.

If you need to take an authorised interruption of study, our policy for postgraduate taught study explains the fees you will need to pay.

If you are withdrawing from the University of Edinburgh, our policy for postgraduate taught study explains the fees you will need to pay.

If you are a postgraduate taught student who requires an extension of study, you are not charged fees to cover the period over which your studies are extended.

Our policy explains tuition fees for full time postgraduate taught study, including those taught over multiple years, and fees when admitted to a masters but exiting without an award, or exiting with a diploma or certificate.

Our policy explains tuition fees for part-time postgraduate taught study, including those invoiced at course level (part-time intermittent study).

We have a few postgraduate taught programmes which are funded on the same basis as our undergraduate programmes. For these, the undergraduate fee policy applies. Current programmes which fall into this category include the Masters in Architecture (MArch) and the Professional Graduate Diploma in Education (PGDE).

Our policy when the University is unable to offer a suitable replacement programme following the discontinuation of a programme.
