Tuition fees and student loans

Tuition fees are one of the main costs of studying at university. At Hartpury, your tuition fees cover a variety of costs including the teaching of lectures, tutorials and lab sessions.

The tuition fees also contribute to the running of a vibrant student community. The fee is due at the start of each academic year of your studies, but most students choose to take out a student loan to cover this cost.

Undergraduate course fees are charged per year. The following tuition fees information applies to the academic year starting 2025 only, and may be subject to change in future years.
