University of Chichester EU Scholarship
Before Brexit, undergraduate students from the EU paid Home fees (the fees British students pay) at most universities in the UK. Post Brexit, since 2021, they have had to pay international fees, which are higher.
At Chichester, in appreciation of the enormous contribution EU students brought to our campus community in terms of passion and academic rigour pre-Brexit, we’ve decided to turn the clock back to 2020. EU undergraduate students now pay Home fees.
