£9,535
per year (2025/26)
If you're a UK student, you don't need the money to pay for university now.
You can apply for a Tuition Fee Loan to cover your course fees.
£9,535 - UK students starting 2025/26 (full-time, per year)
If you're a UK student, you don't need the money to pay for university now. If you accept an offer to study at university, you can apply for a Tuition Fee Loan to cover your course fees.
Both full-time and part-time students can apply for a Tuition Fee Loan. Part-time students should be studying more than a quarter (25% intensity) of a full-time course each year.
You'll start repaying the loan in the April after you graduate.
If you start a course on or after 1 August 2023, you won't repay anything until you earn more than £25,000. This is called repayment Plan 5. At this point, you'll repay 9% on everything you earn over £25,000. After 40 years (from the April after graduation), all remaining debt is wiped.
For example for students who are on repayment Plan 5:
If you earn £25,500, you'll repay £45 a year or £3.75 a month. That's because £25,500 is £500 above the threshold, and 9% of £500 is £45.
What you repay depends on how much you earn after university. The more you earn, the more you pay back.
