Fees for UK citizen returning from abroad
Apr 2020We are British citizens living abroad. I am planning to return to live in UK but my son will complete his schooling abroad. Will he be eligible for home fees if I have been in UK and if he has been returning for holidays?
It's at the discretion of universities. Unis make decisions on fee status after an application has been made and the offer of a place on academic grounds has been made. The rules are that you should have been resident in the UK for the three years immediately prior to starting university to qualify for home fees.
