A key highlight of my experience was the pool of different opportunities to get involved in. From cross-border projects to competitions, societies or volunteering, there was never a shortage of opportunities to improve our marketing knowledge and gain practical experience. I truly think that the eagerness to learn and broad range of experiences is what set me apart from my peers when it came to new projects and challenges, as I could much easier navigate in between the theory and practice.

How do you know if you need to pay UK or international tuition fees?

We carry out an initial fee status assessment based on the information you provide in your application. Your fee status determines your tuition fees, and what financial support and scholarships may be available to you. The rules about who pays UK (home) or international (overseas) fees for higher education courses in England are set by the Department for Education. The regulations identify all the different categories of student who can insist on paying the home rate. The regulations can be difficult to understand, so the UK Council for International Student Affairs (UKCISA) has provided fee status guidance to help you identify whether you are eligible to pay the home or overseas rate.

If you meet all the criteria required by any one category, including any residence requirements, your institution must charge you the home rate. You only need to find one category that you fit into.
