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.

Undergraduate course fees are charged per year. The following tuition fees information applies to the academic year starting 2024 only, and may be subject to change in future years.
