The academic calendar at UNN is divided into two semesters, as in many other universities in United Kingdom. For convenience, tuition fees are calculated per year. Tuition fees at UNN are different for locals and foreigners. United Kingdom citizens pay 3,946 USD per year, while international students pay a minimum of 4,607 USD. Thanks to scholarships and financial aid, university students have the opportunity to fully or partially cover the cost of education. On the official website of the university, you can find all the up-to-date information on tuition fees and available scholarships.
In addition to the cost of education, it is necessary to pay attention to additional costs: accommodation, transportation, study materials, meals and personal expenses.

11 years of school is not enough to get into UNN. Since students study longer in United Kingdom, you must first eliminate the academic difference — study for a year at a university in your home country, or take one of the preparatory programs (A-Levels, Foundation, etc.). Before submitting documents to the university, applicants take an English language exam. The university accepts the results of IELTS, PTE or TOEFL. The minimum TOEFL score is 89. The IELTS score is not lower than 5. Applicants will need a subject exam — SAT. UNN also provides online undergraduate programs.
The academic performance of a student in an undergraduate program plays an important role in the selection of candidates. In order to enroll at UNN for a master's program, you will have to confirm knowledge of the English language. You can do this by passing the exam — IELTS or PTE. IELTS — 6 or higher. UNN provides an opportunity to get a master's degree remotely.
The campus of UNN is located in Newcastle upon Tyne. This is a fairly large city that opens up many opportunities for students: from cafes, restaurants and other entertainment to internships at large companies. But an urban campus can also be a disadvantage, because big city life distracts some students from their studies. The university has a library, in the collection of which you will find not only textbooks and scientific works, but also works of the classics, modern literature and much more. UNN accepts students for international exchange programs. This is a great opportunity to gain experience in intercultural communication for both international and local students.

Students are allowed to stay in the country for a year after graduation. To do this, you need to extend your student visa or apply for a job seeker visa. UNN graduates find jobs quickly, partly because the university has a good reputation among employers according to the QS World University Rankings. We talk about other options for immigration in our article.
