International students

Tuition fees

International students pay the full unsubsidised tuition fees. As a result, they are higher than UK or EU students. Click here to find information about costs for undergraduate courses. Click here to find information about costs for postgraduate courses.

Please be aware that you are not able to apply for statutory loans to cover these costs in the same way as UK or EU students. 

University of Southampton scholarships

You may qualify for a scholarship. This is subject specific funding organized by the school that you are studying in. You can find information online about undergraduate scholarships and postgraduate scholarships.

Funding and living costs

Before you begin your studies here you should make sure that you have adequate funds and have made due provision to cover your living and tuition fee costs for the duration of your course. Living costs vary depending on individual circumstances but as a guide, the cost of living section of the accommodation website may be useful.

Accommodation

The amount you will pay in accommodation will vary depending on if you are staying in University halls of residence or living in private rented accommodation. The accommodation website is a good place to start investigating accommodation costs.

US and Canada students

Further information about the funding available to students from the United States of America and Canada can be found on our dedicated US Federal Loan page.
