Financial information for English, Welsh and Northern Irish students
Tuition Fees
Will I have to pay tuition fees?
Every university has its own unique fee levels and complex systems; at Stirling we have a standard, easy-to-understand system. We have set fees at £6,750 a year, for each year of study, for fee-paying degrees (excluding state funded courses e.g. nursing).
To cover the cost of these fees all students from England, Wales and Northern Ireland are entitled to a non means-tested ‘fee loan’ to cover this cost.
Paying your fees
All fees are due and payable on enrolment, and are made directly to the University. If you choose to, you can finance the cost of the tuition fees yourself. However, you can apply for the tuition fee loan to cover the cost of your fees and the Student Loans Company will pay your institution directly.
Part-time Study
Part-time students will continue to pay tuition fees. Fee waivers may be available for students on certain benefits or low income.
