The cost of studying at Liverpool Hope University varies largely depending on the type of university and the degree chosen. More often than not, humanities, arts, and education courses are less expensive than degrees in medical, engineering, or management. Furthermore, students who choose to study at the postgraduate level typically pay higher tuition fees, which again vary depending on the programme chosen. 

Most universities provide scholarships or financial aid to students in order to help them offset their tuition costs. Students should be aware that additional course fees and incidental expenses may not be included in tuition. On average, international students can expect to pay £13,000 annually, to study in Liverpool Hope University.

Social policy equips you with combinations of personal and general skills that are often highly transferable and valued by potential employers. Career paths for Social Policy graduates are wide-ranging in both the private and the public sector. Graduates often gain employment in the housing, health or educational sector as researchers, administrators or managers, as well as attaining posts in local government. They are also recruited to positions within the criminal justice and legal system. Some go on to study for higher degrees that give them a specific expertise in a field of social policy. Social policy graduates will also be particularly well qualified to apply for MA programmes in Social Work and Social Policy.
