How much you pay for tuition fees depends on whether you are assessed as a home or overseas student.

Also, home students who start their full-time course in the 2011/12 academic year, and who already hold a degree or a higher qualification, may have to pay the ELQ fee, which is set to £5,100 per year for full-time students, and £560 per 20 credit module for part-time students. 

All new students will be required to complete a fee status assessment, and from this information the University will determine if home or overseas fees are payable.

Students disputing their overseas status will be given an opportunity to provide evidence to support their claim for home fees.

Students disputing fee status will be unable to enrol on any programme unless 50% of the total overseas fee for the year is paid on or before enrolment.

Tuition fees at University of West London for new students starting a full-time undergraduate course in 2011/12 are £3,375 per year. Fees are likely to rise each year with inflation.

This is also the fee for 'continuing' students who started their course in 2009/10 or 2010/11.  Other students should contact University of West London's Credit Control department on 020 8280 0281 / 0282/ 0283 / 0284 or e-mail creditcontrolonline@uwl.ac.uk for more details about the fee they will be charged.

Apart from the loan for tuition fees (which will be increased to cover the maximum fee that can be charged), funding support is likely to remain at the same rates as for new students in 2010/11.

See the Student Finance England website for more information.
