There is a lot of financial assistance available from the University of South Wales and external funding sources, which may provide loans (that must be repaid) and grants, scholarships, and bursaries (that don't).
*Full-time fees are per year. Part-time fees are per 20 credits. Once enrolled, the fee is anticipated to remain at the same rate throughout the duration of your study on this course, except as described below.
Please be aware that we may increase the maximum fee for home students on full-time undergraduate courses only where the Welsh Government increases the permitted level of inflation of fees. Fees for all students (including part-time, postgraduate, and international students) may be amended in accordance with our applicable Fees and Debt Management Policy.
