Overview

This page covers Accounting with a Foundation Year across the departments we work with, including what each asks for and what it charges. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.

Teaching in Accounting is taught in large cohorts at most universities, so seminar groups and the tutor system matter more than the lecture list when you compare departments.

Tuition ranges from £22,200 to £26,550 a year depending on the department, which is a real difference over the length of the course.

Applications open around a year ahead of the intake. Getting the documents together early is what keeps the September date realistic.
