Studying in the United Kingdom just became more accessible — and more affordable! Starting 20th October 2025, the University of Nottingham has officially removed application fees for all Postgraduate Taught (PGT) programs.
This major step means thousands of international students — including Indian students — can now apply to one of the UK’s top universities without paying the usual £50–£100 application fee.
At Dolphin Education Consultancy, we’re excited to share this update and help Indian students make the most of this golden opportunity to study at a Russell Group university without worrying about upfront application costs.
Until recently, international students applying to postgraduate programs at Nottingham had to pay a non-refundable application fee per course. That amount often added up, especially for those applying to multiple programs.
From 20th October 2025, that fee is completely waived for all PGT degrees — a move that reinforces Nottingham’s dedication to:
Promoting global access to education
Reducing financial pressure for applicants
Encouraging diversity and inclusion in higher education
For Indian students, this means you can now apply to multiple postgraduate programs — from Engineering and Business to Data Science and Environmental Studies — without worrying about extra financial burden.
The University of Nottingham is not just one of the UK’s Russell Group universities; it’s a global leader in research, innovation, and employability. Here’s why it’s a top choice for Indian students aiming to study in the UK in 2026:
Ranked among the Top 100 universities globally, Nottingham is known for groundbreaking work in Artificial Intelligence, Renewable Energy, and Health Sciences.
Students have access to cutting-edge research labs, global faculty, and collaboration opportunities that go beyond textbooks.
With strong ties to global employers such as Rolls-Royce, Deloitte, and Siemens, Nottingham graduates enjoy excellent career prospects.
Career services, internships, and employability workshops prepare students for the global job market.
With campuses in the UK, China, and Malaysia, the University of Nottingham offers one of the most international study environments in the world.
Students can experience inter-campus mobility, gaining exposure to multiple global markets.
From over 40,000 students representing 150+ countries, Nottingham’s campus life is diverse and dynamic.
Indian students find strong community support, cultural societies, and mentoring programs that make transition smoother.
The removal of application fees is not just a cost-saving benefit — it’s an opportunity multiplier.
Indian students can now:
Apply to multiple UK postgraduate programs without financial hesitation
Compare offers before paying deposits
Increase chances of getting into their preferred course or intake
Reapply confidently after improving academic or IELTS scores
This makes Nottingham one of the most affordable postgraduate universities in the UK — ideal for students who are cost-conscious yet ambitious.
