UNIVERSITY TUITION FEES | University of Leicester

Tuition fees for 2012 entry: £9,000

What they say: "Leicester is unique. Of the UK’s top-15 leading universities, as ranked by the Times Good University Guide, only one meets its government benchmarks for inclusivity for students from state schools and lower socio-economic groups. That university is Leicester. As the Times Higher described us, we are elite without being elitist. In making our decision about fees we need to stay true to this characteristic.

The Government has announced cuts in University funding over the next four years that will reduce our teaching grant by an estimated £31.5m. Our capital funding will also fall. A higher tuition fee of £9,000 is therefore essential to protect the quality of our work.

But we are determined that no able student should be deterred from studying by the prospect of higher fees. We will therefore offer one of the largest and most comprehensive programmes of scholarships in the sector."

Information correct as of February 2012. Please note this page focuses on the new tuition fees system payable by UK (Home) and EU students on a full-time undergraduate degree course in England. The system for international students has not changed radically and, therefore, annual fees for international students are likely to remain unchanged and higher than those stated on this page.
