Tuition fees
Northern Ireland has the lowest tuition fees in the UK for students studying at home:
£4,855 per year if you study at a Northern Irish university
£9,535 per year if you study elsewhere in the UK (England, Wales, or Scotland)
You can apply for a tuition fee loan through Student Finance Northern Ireland (SFNI) to cover the full cost of your tuition fees. This loan is paid directly to your university and is repayable after you graduate.
Part-time students may be eligible for tuition fee support depending on their course intensity and circumstances.
