Funding your studies

Studying for a degree at Hartpury is a great investment for your future. It’s really important for you to have a plan on how you'll finance your studies.

You’ll also need to budget to ensure you have sufficient money for living costs including transport, accommodation, meals and other expenses while you study.

Cost of living

We understand that the cost of living is a key consideration when deciding whether or not to pursue university study and everything that comes with it. At Hartpury University, we aim to support our students wherever possible.

Utility bills and contents insurance at no extra charge

There are a range of options available to suit all budgets and requirements, both on and off campus, all of which include contents insurance at no extra charge. All utilities (heating, lighting, water supply) are also included within Hartpury-managed accommodation on and off campus, as well as TV Licence fees within communal areas on campus. There are also opportunities to fund your studies as a Residential Support Assistant, a role that includes free accommodation.

Free campus car parking is available with a permit, as well as a subsidised bus service between our campus and the City of Gloucester. You can also make use of nationwide initiatives. The 16-25 Railcard is available to 16 to 25 year olds, or mature students — 26 years or older — in full-time study. National Express also offers a Young Persons Coachcard (16-26 and/or full-time students) and discounts through UNiDAYS and TOTUM.
