If you're planning to study one of our taught postgraduate courses, you'll need to pay tuition fees.
Here you can read about tuition fees for the following course types:
- Masters (MA, MSc and MRes)
- Postgraduate Diploma (PgDip)
- Postgraduate Certificate (PgCert)
- Graduate Diploma (GradDip).
There is a separate page about tuition fees for Research Degrees including MPhil and PhD.
How much you need to pay depends on:
- whether you're classed as a Home or International student (your fee status)
- the year your course starts.
The tuition fees on this page cover the cost of the whole course and are not quoted per academic year.
The tuition fees on this page do not take any scholarships or discounts, such as the Postgraduate Progression Discount (a 20% discount on your tuition fees) into account.
The Postgraduate Progression Discount is available to eligible alumni. This Includes UAL-validated courses at other institutions. There is a separate discount arrangement for international partner institutions.
