Jointly delivered programmes

Where UCL jointly delivers aÌýprogrammeÌýwith other universities or colleges, the fees may be set by the collaborating institution and this will be stated with the tuition fee listed above. In relation to programmes of more than one year, we will also will specify the fee for subsequent years or state how the fees may increase from year to year.

Non-Resident PhD Programmes

A deduction of £1,500 from full-time studentÌýfees and £750 from part-time studentÌýfees has been agreed by the Graduate School. This applies to both UKÌýand Overseas students.

Study leave

Fees for Study Leave during a Research Degree will be charged at half the full-time or part-time UKÌýfee, depending on yourÌýregistration status.Ìý

Additional Fee Element

A minority of PhD students may have to pay an Additional Fee Element (AFE). This is also known as a bench fee by some UK institutions. The AFE covers additional costs which are not included in the tuition fee listed above. These additional costs are for consumables, equipment, materials and other items, but they don'tÌýincludeÌýstudent visas.ÌýAs each PhD is unique, your AFE will be specifically calculated forÌýyou by yourÌýsupervisor. Please contact your supervisor directly for advice on whether or not you will pay an AFE.ÌýYour offer letter will also confirmÌýany AFE you will be required to pay.

There are five bands for AFE charges:

  • Band 1 is £1,000
  • Band 2 is £2,500
  • Band 3 is £5,000
  • Band 4 is £10,000
