Undergraduate Student Funding

We are committed to ensuring students from the UK understand the costs and funding for them if they choose to apply to the University of Oxford. Why not start by viewing the cartoon below which gives an overview of fees and funding at Oxford for 2012 entrants, then consider the rest of this page which explains why we think an Oxford Education is excellent value for money.

Students intending to commence their studies in 2013 should use the information contained in these pages as a guide to the Oxford support that may be available to them. The University will confirm its 2013 funding arrangements in late May 2012, subject to approval by the Office for Fair Access in July 2012.

Despite what you may have heard, it's no more expensive to study at Oxford than at any other university. In fact, our world-class resources and college provision actually keep living costs down. 

While many universities are offering either reduced fees or bursaries in response to the new tuition charges, Oxford will provide both.  Not only this, Oxford is offering the most generous financial support of any university to those on a family income of less than £16,000. 

This University is proud to be able to offer a generous financial support package for students from the lowest-income households, in addition to the support available from the Government.

If you are interested in finding out more about the true cost of studying at a top university committed to access for all, regardless of means, then please see our living costs information.
