Fees and dates
Check if you'll need to pay fees to join our Summer Research Programme.
Exchange students
If you're an exchange student from a partner university, you won't need to pay any tuition fees to us. Your home university simply need to nominate you for an exchange place.
When you've completed the Summer Research Programme, you'll be awarded credit for your studies and we'll send a transcript of your grades to your home university. They will then transfer credit gained while in Liverpool to your home university course.
Visiting students (fee paying)
Visiting students normally come from universities that don't have an exchange partnership in place with the University of Liverpool, you'll pay tuition fees to the University of Liverpool for the duration of your stay. If you are currently studying at one of our partner universities, but your home Global Opportunities team don’t have any exchange places left for this academic year, you can still pay fees and come as a visiting student. As a visiting student from a partner university, you will be eligible for a 10% discount on tuition fees.
When you've completed the Summer Research Programme, you'll be awarded credit for your studies and we'll send a transcript of your grades to you.
