Important tuition fee information

Like most research-led universities in the UK, Swansea University will charge a £9,000 undergraduate Tuition Fee in 2012. However, as an EU student applying to study in Wales for 2012 entry, you will only pay a Tuition Fee of £3,465 a year.*

This does not have to be paid at the start of or during the course, as you can take out a Tuition Fee Loan to cover the amount from the Student Loans Company. This is then repaid after graduation, but when you earn over the equivalent of £21,000 a year.

The remaining £5,535 a year (the difference between what you pay and the full £9000 a year Tuition Fee charge) is paid as a Tuition Fee Grant from the Welsh Government, and again does not have to be repaid.

For full information on applying for a Tuition Fee Loan and how to receive the Tuition Fee Grant, please contact the Student Finance Services European Team, which handles all applications for financial assistance from EU students applying to universities in the UK.
