Cost of studying in Liverpool
Although not the most affordable city in the world, Liverpool isn’t exactly the most expensive city either, ranking 80th for affordability this year.
A year’s tuition will set international students back an average of US$20,700 per year. Although this sounds expensive, it’s cheaper than fellow UK city Bristol, which has average annual tuition fees of US$30,500.
Living costs are also high. Numbeo estimates that a single person living in the city will need around US$885 per month, with an extra US$895 for rent. It’s worth noting, however, that rent in the UK capital, London, is around 64 percent higher than in Liverpool.

The city’s nightlife is also second to none, with many bars and clubs putting on special student nights with discounted drinks and entry for students, covering an eclectic range of musical genres.
