Three things that you should know:

We charge £9,000 per year

This is a world-class university. If we're going to carry on delivering the highest possible standard of education we have to keep investing in staff and facilities.

No other UK university can offer the same combination of academic excellence, practical problem-solving and community spirit. Our staff and students feel they're part of something special. We want to keep it that way.

You don't have to pay upfront

In fact, you don't have to pay a penny until you're earning over £21,000 a year. If you stop earning, you stop paying. Simple as that.

The monthly instalments are even less than you would have paid under the pre-2012 system.

It's the best investment you’ll ever make

Coming to Sheffield changes everything. It gives you an edge in the careers market, but it's more than that. What you learn and the way you learn it shapes you as a person, makes you ready for anything.

It's an experience you benefit from for the rest of your life.
