Liverpool John Moores University

With over 20,000 students and over 200 undergraduate courses, we're passionate about helping you achieve your dreams.

You are charged a tuition fee for every year of your course. Fees for 2024 have not been set yet. In 2023, LJMU fees were set at £9,250* per year for all fulltime undergraduate degree programmes.

You don’t have to pay tuition fees up front– subject to eligibility, you can take out a tuition fee loan for each year of your course. This is paid direct to the University. You can also take out a maintenance loan to help cover your living expenses such as rent and food.

LJMU offers a fantastic range of targeted support for students from lower income households plus scholarships for talented and academically gifted students.

Targeted support is also available for students with disabilities, students with children or students who have been in care or are estranged from their families.

Support with the cost of living is paramount at LJMU. Each year, LJMU commits £1 million to supporting students facing financial hardship through our Student Support Fund. This year, we are committing an additional £1 million, plus £234,000 from the Office for Students. This means over £2.2 million is dedicated to help our students in 2022/23.

The Money Advice Team can help any LJMU student facing financial hardship, with friendly advice and immediate assistance to cover food costs, bills, and give financial support.

So far this academic year, we’ve helped over 1,700 students with support averaging around £890 per application.

LJMU has two city centre campuses housing five faculties, two libraries and dozens of specialist facilities to make sure you make the most out of your student experience.

We guarantee all new students a place in high quality student accommodation, right in the heart of Liverpool City Centre

Living away from friends and family for the first time can be an exciting but equally daunting experience. That’s why we guarantee all new students – including those who join us through Clearing – a place in our LJMU-approved accommodation, living/ with other first year LJMU students. There is a wide range of high quality student accommodation to choose from in the centre of Liverpool, all within walking distance of your teaching buildings (and right where the action is).

Your student accommodation will consist of an individual study bedroom within a shared flat where you will eat, sleep and study alongside other new LJMU students; most bedrooms also have private en-suite bathrooms. The accommodation is all self-catering, so you’ll have to brush up on your cookery skills before you arrive. The welfare of our students is paramount, that’s why support staff are on site 24/7.

We also have accommodation that is wheelchair accessible and suitable for students with visual or hearing impairments. Visits can be arranged to view our accommodation and to discuss individual needs in greater detail.

Joining our student community means you become part of a vibrant and enterprising city, home to the friendliest people in England*
