Overseas Students: Fees and Charges
Asked by: Baroness Garden of Frognal (Liberal Democrat - Life peer) Wednesday 29th April 2026 Question to the Department for Education: To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the impact of including PhD students in the international student levy on the UK’s ability to attract global research talent. Answered by Baroness Smith of Malvern - Minister of State (Department for Work and Pensions) The international student levy will fund the reintroduction of maintenance grants for disadvantaged students studying level 4 to 6 courses aligned with the government’s missions and the Industrial Strategy. Higher education (HE) providers are independent from government and responsible for managing their own finances, including any impact from the international student levy. To support providers’ financial planning, the levy will be introduced in 2028/29 and paid one year in arrears, with an allowance of 220 students applying per provider per year. We have also announced tuition fee cap increases in line with forecast inflation for the 2025/26, 2026/27 and 2027/28 academic years, and will legislate, when parliamentary time allows, to increase caps automatically for future years. Over the next five years, these uplifts could generate an additional £6 billion for HE providers, significantly outweighing the currently projected less than £1 billion levy cost.
