<p class="text-align-justify"><strong>Is university free in Scotland?</strong></p>

<p class="text-align-justify">Yes, it is free to study in Scotland if the students meet certain criteria. If the student is a UK national who is already residing in Scotland or a national of other EU countries pursuing a first undergraduate degree, then they are not required to pay any tuition fees at Scottish Universities since it will be covered by SAAS. This exemption, however, does not apply to international students or students from the rest of the United Kingdom who have relocated to Scotland only to attend university.</p>

<p class="text-align-justify">The undergraduate fees for home students are normally 1,820 GBP a year which is covered by SAAS. Although, both RUK students and international students are not eligible for the fee weaver, the undergraduate fees they both pay is different. International students typically pay more ranging from 13,000 to 50,000 GBP a year whereas RUK students pay 9,250 GBP a year.</p>

<p class="text-align-justify">There is no distinction between RUK and Scottish students in post-graduation programs. Tuition fees are almost always required to pursue a post-graduate degree. The cost differs depending upon the university, the programs he/she selects as well as the fee status. Postgraduate fees for all the students i.e., home, RUK, and international are around 5,000 to 15,000 GBP per year.</p>
