 Tuition fees and costs

Annual tuition fees are listed on the Undergraduate Study Programme Fees page related to your programme.

Successful applicants for the Learning in Communities programme will be required to join Disclosure Scotland's Protecting Vulnerable Groups (PVG) Scheme with the University of Edinburgh as the Registered Body.  You must cover the cost of joining the PVG Scheme, which is currently between £18 and £59.

Your tuition fee status is determined by:

  • your nationality
  • the country where you normally live - where you are 'ordinarily resident'
