Extra costs

There can be costs when you go to university on top of tuition fees and living costs. These costs could be to do with your personal circumstances or your course.

Your personal circumstances

Information on financial help you can get due to personal circumstances can be found in the SAAS funding guide .

Your course

Some courses have extra costs like:

• equipment for example art materials, books
• membership fees to professional bodies
• entrance to accredited exams
• travel and accommodation costs for placements – Student Awards Agency Scotland (SAAS) can help with nursing and midwifery students and some students studying health related courses
• travel abroad as part of your course – if you have to spend time abroad for your course speak to SAAS about potential financial support

Ask your university if your tuition fee covers any of these extra costs to do with your course.
