Fees and Funding for home students

There are various options of support available to you to help fund your tuition fees and living costs during your studies with us.  

The following information on tuition fees and maintenance loans applies to home students who are applying to Student Finance England (SFE) for their funding. This is because most undergraduates who come to study with us will have SFE as their funding body.

Tuition Fees (by level of study)

All other HNCs: £278.00

**From 1 August 2025, certain classroom-based foundation year courses will fall under a new lower tuition fee cap of £5,760 per year, subject to Parliamentary approval. These courses are limited to specific subjects defined as “classroom-based” under OfS Price Group D at the time of publication.

Foundation years will be classified as either lower-fee (£5,760) or higher-fee (£9,535 for 2025/26), depending on the subject area. These fee limits apply to full-time foundation years offered by approved HE providers with an Access and Participation Plan (APP) and a Teaching Excellence Framework (TEF) award. Part-time foundation year fees will also be capped, with details outlined in the official guidance.

For further information, visit the UK Government’s guidance on higher education tuition fees for foundation years.

After applying for a Tuition Fee Loan via Student Finance England, the next step for students is to apply for a Maintenance Loan. Your eligibility to apply for a Maintenance Loan, as with a Tuition Fee Loan, depends on various factors – with residency status and previous study being key points to consider.

Check your eligibility and apply for student finance.

Documented confirmation of payment of your tuition fees by the Student Loans Company is required to be provided to the college.

To improve access, continuation, achievement and progression within the student body, the College operates several schemes in line with its Access and Participation Plan to that offer financial assistance to students in addition to that which they receive from their maintenance loans from Student Finance England.

We currently have three bursary awards available to eligible students.

Advance payment is not available, and awards are only paid out once attendance and submissions are confirmed. This can take up one month after deadline submission.

 The Student Enablement Fund

 To further improve access, continuation, achievement and progression for students with disabilities, Regent College London operates the Student Enablement Fund (SEF) in line with our Access and Participation Plan. The fund is here to help remove study-related barriers for students with disabilities at Regent College London. It provides financial support for costs that are not fully covered by other schemes such as the Disabled Students Allowance (DSA) or the Hardship Fund.

Our aim is to ensure every student has what they need to participate fully in their course and to support an inclusive learning environment.

You can apply for the Student Enablement Fund if:

  • You are enrolled on an undergraduate or postgraduate degree at Regent College London;
  • You have formally declared a disability to the College;
  • Your disability meets the definition set out in the Equality Act 2010, meaning it has a substantial and long-term impact on your ability to carry out day-to-day activities.

The fund provides support based on individual circumstances. It can be used for study-related items or services that help you engage with your course, but cannot be used for equipment or resources that are already fully funded by DSA. The maximum amount payable is £2,000.
