Fees for 2012

The Government has recently introduced new funding arrangements for higher education. This means the withdrawal of the great majority of public funding for higher education. The University of Worcester is one of the very few universities, known for their high-quality qualifications, who are charging the actual cost (rather than the maximum amount established by the Government).

The fees at Worcester reflect the cost of efficiently providing an excellent education. We believe that once a student is selected to study here, they become a member of our community. This informs everything we do.

At Worcester, we are committed to providing our future students with the same worldclass education and state-of-the-art facilities available to our students today. We will be introducing a raft of measures to ensure that we continue to attract the most talented, ambitious students regardless of their financial circumstances.
