Fees & Dates

At the University of Liverpool we welcome both exchange and visiting Study Abroad students. Please see below to identify which student type you are.

Exchange students:

International exchange students come from universities where we have an exchange partnership. You will be selected by your home university to study with us for either a semester or a full academic year. Exchange students do not pay any tuition fees to the University of Liverpool; you pay tuition to your home university only. You will be awarded credit for your studies and a transcript of your grades will be sent to your home university for credit transfer. Exchange students may be eligible to receive scholarships from their home university or state funding; ask your home university Study Abroad office for more details.
