English and Welsh universities to charge home fees for Channel Islands students

Students from the Channel Islands attending university and other higher education providers in Wales from the 2022-2023 academic year will now be charged home fees, following a decision by the Welsh Government.

The vast majority of Welsh universities already charge Crown Dependency students home fees: this includes students from the Channel Islands. On the 26th January 2922, the Welsh Government made regulations which give Crown Dependency students access to home fees.

The changes follow a similar announcement by the English Government which means Channel Islands students can access the same fees as UK residents when studying at an English university.

The changes apply to all levels of study and come into effect from the 2022-2023 academic year. This means that any Channel Islands students starting their studies at a Welsh university from September 2022 will be charged home fees.

Students who are in the process of applying to study at a Welsh university can apply as normal.

Jersey’s Minister for Children and Education, Deputy Scott Wickenden, said: “This is wonderful news for students and families, as they can now apply to a Welsh university with complete clarity about the fees they’ll be charged. Because this change applies to Master and PhD degrees, as well as undergraduate degrees, I hope it will enable more Jersey students to reach their potential at all levels.”

Guernsey’s Deputy Andrea Dudley-Owen, President of the Committee for Education, Sport & Culture, said: “Our Committee is delighted with this change, which addresses an issue that I know has been of concern to a number of students and their families for some time now,
particularly following the changes made last year relating to English universities. On average there are up to 35 students from the Bailiwick who go to universities and other higher education providers in Wales each year. I’m pleased the Welsh Government has recognised the value our students bring. This decision will provide welcome certainty to our young people that they will be treated the same as their UK counterparts, as far as fees are concerned, when attending university in Wales.”

Any Jersey students or families with questions can contact Student Finance by phone on 01534 449450 or by email at studentfinance@gov.je.
