The cost of studying at Loughborough 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 £28,600 annually, to study in Loughborough University.

Our Geography and Sport Science (BSc) students have been appointed to posts across a broad range of industries and sectors. Some of our graduates go on to further study or training, or take up posts that reflect the content of both subjects such as teacher training for Physical Education and Geography; others have been appointed to posts in publishing, sport marketing, administration and management. Almost all of our graduates are in employment within a few months of graduating, or progress to postgraduate study.
