Exchange costs for 2025/2026
Exchange costs for 2025/2026
There are no tuition fees from University of Birmingham for exchange students, however students will still have to prepare their own living costs.

I’ve truly felt that the University listens to and cares about its students - welcoming you as one of their own, no matter how you look, sound, or speak.
