Yes, you can manage tuition fees and living expenses in the UK for a master's degree on your own if you have sufficient personal funds.

- Tuition fees: Typically range from £15,000 - £45,000 per year, depending on the course and university. - Living expenses: About £18,348 - £25,260/year in London, or £14,052/year outside London. - Visa requirement: You must show proof of funds covering both tuition and living costs.

With your work experience and if your savings or income meet these costs, self-funding is possible. If your budget falls short, consider scholarships, loans, or part-time work.
