Scholarships for Your Country

Universities in the UK will be charging up to £9,000 per year for Bachelors degrees from 2012 onwards. The Welsh Assembly Government will be assisting EU students with this extra cost, meaning that studying in Wales will represent very good value when compared with the rest of the UK. In 2012, non-UK EU students will be personally liable for £3,465 of tuition fees, which can be covered by a loan from the Student Loans Company.

Visit our scholarships and fees pages for more information.
