I am an EU/EEA/Swiss student/applicant who enrolled in 2020/21 or before; What is my fee status?

If you need to interrupt your studies but met “home” fee status eligibility upon entry to your programme, and completed the enrolment process in or before 2020-21, you will not have your fees reassessed whilst at King’s. 

If you started your programme at Kings in or before the 2020/21 academic year and you meet any of the following criteria below, your fees will not be reassessed:

• Transfer of subject area, where you will continue your learning at the same level with progression for example if you are currently studying MA International Relations and wish to transfer to MA International Conflict Studies and are being allowed to transfer at the same stage (therefore you are not restarting the new programme from the beginning); or  
• Transferring onto the more in-depth version of the same programme (e.g. from a BSci to an MSci); or 
• If you transfer onto or out of the study abroad or work placement version of your programme; or 
• Transfer onto a different mode of study (e.g. part-time to full-time or vice versa); or 
• Transfer from MRes to PHD where your admissions offer was for the full PHD programme and standard process is that you enrol onto the MRes in year 1 and then you are upgraded to the PHD if you meet the academic criteria to do so. 

If you transfer to a new course and begin the programme from year 1, you may be subject to a fee assessment, using the regulations in place for that academic year. 

If you are accepted onto an intercalation year at King’s, we will uphold the fee status assessment made at the point of entry to your programme (at King’s or another institution).

Students registered on a Medical or Dental programme can choose to intercalate either at King’s or at another institution.   

If you choose to intercalate outside King’s, we recommend you check with the institution you are intending to intercalate with to understand how they will assess your fee status. 

If you do intercalate outside King’s, when you re-join your programme at King’s no fee reassessment will be made. Your fee status will be the same as when you began your programme. 

If you were made an offer but deferred that offer prior to having enrolled, you would not be considered as an EU national who started a higher education course in England in the 2020/21 academic year (or before), and therefore would be subject to the regulations implemented when you are about to enrol.
