Fee status
Like other universities in the United Kingdom, we assign you a fee status depending on whether you are from Scotland, the rest of the UK or overseas.
Work out your fee status
Before you can work out how much you will pay for your programme, you need to know what your fee status is.
Confirming your fee status after you apply
Your fee status is not confirmed until after you apply for admission. Once you start studying, your fee status cannot be updated if your circumstances change.
