Fee status is one of the most critical yet least understood parts of applying to UK universities. The difference between Home and Overseas fees can amount to tens of thousands of pounds over the course of a degree. By partnering with COBIS, UKSO can now help more families understand their eligibility early, avoid costly mistakes, and maximise their child’s potential.
This partnership provides school leaders and counsellors with access to trusted expertise that directly benefits their communities. With UKSO’s support, schools can offer their families greater clarity and confidence during the university application journey, turning complex rules into clear, actionable advice.
As established Supporting Associates of COBIS, we are thrilled to take our collaboration to the next level. This new partnership allows us to extend specialist support to schools and families across the COBIS network, helping students understand and secure the tuition fees they deserve, and giving staff and counsellors the tools to guide them effectively. Together, we are strengthening pathways into UK higher education and removing barriers that can hold students back.
