Postgraduate Research

The Centre for Doctoral Studies extended the thesis submission deadline for all students (who enrolled prior to April 2020) by 3 months. If the "COVID Expiry Date Extension" to your expected/required thesis submission deadline is going to occur in the academic session 2026/27, it follows that your tuition fee liability will be adjusted so that you are not charged tuition fees during the 3 months extension period.

Repeating a Year

If you are repeating a year of study due re-assessment or deferred assessment.

Goods & Services Tax

King's College London may be required to add Goods and Services taxes (GST) on top of certain programme fees where students study on courses outside of the UK and where the country of study requires tax to be added to fees.

The UK Government does not require us to levy GST taxes (in the UK's case VAT) on students studying credit bearing courses in the UK, but this is not the case in all overseas tax jurisdictions.

For more information, please visit our GST page.

Expecting a reduction?

If you are expecting a reduction in your fee in 2026/27, you will be notified of the amount when you are invited to re-enrol in August 2026.

Annual increase

UK/EU Undergraduate and PGCE tuition fees are subject to control by the UK Government. Annual increases are determined after consideration of a number of factors including; changes to OfS (Office for Students) funding, the competitive environment and the expected impact of inflation on the cost base of the university.

If you are returning from interruption to study, increases for returning students (overseas undergraduate, all postgraduate and all research students) fees are capped depending on the start of degree registration:
