Course Fees Explained
Course fees apply for all courses at Edinburgh College and vary depending on the type of course you are applying for.
All course fees are payable in advance unless you have applied for and have been granted funding by another source. Course fees are non-refundable except in exceptional circumstances. Funding options vary depending on the level of course you study, and whether you study full-time or part-time.
If you are not eligible for funding, a fee will apply. For SQA courses, fees are the same for each level of course. Therefore, there is a set charge for each unit, Higher, NC/NQ and HNC/D level course.
Fees for International students can found on the International Fees and living costs page.
