Tuition fees cover the cost of teaching, assessments, and access to facilities like the library, IT equipment, and student support services. Many UK students opt for a student loan, repaying only after graduation and earning a salary.
Fees are payable for each year you’re at university. At Norwich we review our tuition fees every year and they are likely increase in line with inflation. UK tuition fees follow government-set caps, and as such are subject to changes made to the agreed cap in a specific year.
The level of tuition fee will depend upon whether you’re classed as either a UK or International student. Your fee status will be assessed during your application and confirmed upon receiving an offer.
| Home | International | |
|---|---|---|
| Undergraduate degree | £9,535 per year | £18,500 per year |
| Integrated Foundation Year | £9,535 per year | £18,500 per year |
| Level 5 Diploma year (CPD and Creative Computing) | £9,535 per year | £18,500 per year |

The rules for inflation on fees in subsequent years depend on the type of fee status and level.
Norwich University of the Arts will assess students’ tuition fee status using the guidance provided by the UK Council for International Student Affairs Students from the UK or Ireland and EU students with ‘Settled’ or ‘Pre-Settled’ status will be charged ‘Home’ fees if they meet the relevant residency requirements. They will usually be eligible for a tuition fee loan from the UK government, meaning that they won’t have to pay Norwich University of the Arts’ tuition fees upfront.
Students who do not meet the necessary residency requirements will usually be charged ‘Overseas’ fees and will not be eligible for the UK government tuition fee loan. Since 2021/22, this includes new entrants from the EU, EEA, and Switzerland who do not have ‘Settled’ or ‘Pre-Settled’ status, because the UK has now formally left the EU.
Tuition fee loans and loans for living costs are usually available to UK and some EU students, as well as non-repayable Norwich University of the Arts bursaries based on family income. Apply for financial support and funding as soon as possible to ensure that your application is processed by the start of the academic year.
Tuition fees loans are available for most UK and some EU students. This is subject to meeting certain eligibility rules. You can apply through your national student finance provider. You won’t start paying it back until you’ve left university, and you’re earning more than the repayment threshold.
Student Maintenance Loans are available from Student Finance England for most UK and some EU students to help with living costs such as accommodation, food, clothes, travel and course expenses. The amount students receive is dependent on household income and any maintenance grant received.
Different figures may apply if you are currently based in Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland.
UK Government loans are administered by regional funding bodies – each of which has their own rules and offer different types and amounts of funding to students.
Eligible students will receive funding from their regional funding body, based on their ordinary country of residence (not where they are planning to study). For detailed information about funding from each body, please follow the links:
