RCS Fee Status Questionnaire

If you are studying in higher education in Scotland, you will be charged one of three levels of fee:

- a 'home' fee for those who meet all the conditions of one (or more) categories; or

- a ‘rest of UK’ (‘RUK’) fee – capped at a middle rate roughly equivalent to the 'home' fee charged in England. Under some (but not all) categories, students who are not eligible for a 'home' fee may instead qualify for this 'RUK' fee and institutions agree with the Scottish Government to cap this fee at a middle rate; or

- a top-rate ‘overseas' fee for all other students.

Your tuition fee status is determined by your nationality, status and the country where you are ordinarily resident (normally live). The Scottish Government advises publicly-funded educational institutions in Scotland to determine 'home' fees eligibility using The Education (Fees) (Scotland) Regulations 2022 (No 156), as amended.

Please read the guidance and definitions below before filling in this form.
