The UK intends to increase university fees in 2025.
According to a story published by The Telegraph on Monday, the United Kingdom is about to witness its first hike in university tuition prices in eight years.
Current A-level students seeking for university admission will be impacted by the change, which is anticipated to take effect “from September 2025.”
Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson will announce the hike, which is expected to be approved by the Prime Minister Keir Starmer administration.
This change will bring tuition costs into line with inflation as measured by the Retail Price Index (RPI).
According to the organisation, tuition rates have been set at £9,250 since 2017.
Although it is still unclear whose precise inflation statistics the Labour administration would employ, fees would increase to almost £9,500 the next year if they were to equal the current rate of 2.7%.
Over the following five years, costs may rise to £10,500, according to previous projections.
As they consider a thorough overhaul of the system, officials are hesitant to commit to more hikes over the upcoming academic year, according to The Telegraph.
