Course Fees for international students
How much will it cost?
It's not just the course fees you have to take into account when
costing your studies. Think about the cost of accommodation, food
and general living too.
MMU scores well in all these respects. Our international fees are
competitive. Plus the cost of living in our region is considerably
lower than London and many other world cities.
At MMU, you'll also be part of a very large student population. Many
shops, restaurants and services offer special student discounts,
which all helps to keep costs down!

Status
You can be
eligible for lower "home" fees and for student support from a local
education authority in the UK if you satisfy three basic conditions:
- You must have been ordinarily resident in
the UK for the three years immediately prior to the start of your
course
- For any part of those three years you must
not have been resident in the UK for the purpose of full-time
education
- You must be settled in the UK at a specified
date prior to the start of your course.
Being settled means if you are ordinarily resident in the UK and

If you fail to
fulfil any one of the three conditions, there are exceptions.
