2026/27 Students from the Islands
There is no longer a separate Islands fee rate. Students will pay either the Home or International fee rate.
Students from the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man are charged the Home fee rate if they're being funded by their island’s authority for higher education.
If you're not being funded by your island’s authority for higher education, UAL will assess your fee status. Depending on the outcome of this assessment, you may be charged either Home or International fees.
