What a first year costs in Leicester

Confirmed 2026-27 tuition plus the same Leicester living costs for every school, so the difference between rows is the fee. Programs without a confirmed flat annual fee are listed last, without a total.

First year = the confirmed annual tuition plus €11,550 of Leicester living costs (10 months of housing and living, plus insurance). It is a first-year figure on purpose: some schools raise fees in the clinical years, and the program page says so where they publish it. Fees charged in another currency are shown in euros at planning rates; the program page gives the official amount.
