The cost of a placement year in a UK master’s program usually ranges from 15% to 20% of the standard annual tuition fee, but the exact amount depends on the university and course. For example, some universities charge a flat fee for the placement year, which can range from around £1,400 to £2,600. These fees may change and can differ based on your status as an international student. To get the most accurate information for your preferred course or university, please check with your LeapScholar counsellor, as they can help you confirm current fees directly with the university.
