There are few affordable universities you can apply to in the UK, and these universities are considered to be way cheap for students, though there has been a recently increased fees for these universities, but are still considered more affordable than other universities in the United Kingdom.

For example in Norway, the Government directly informed all universities to increase their tuition fees budget so as they can balance with the economy, so recently there has been a slight increase in most universities probably in Europe or worldwide.

There are lots of people whom have being wondering on how they can afford studying in the UK, the answer is Yes; you can, and it’s very much possible, but you must be ready to go through that journey to the finish line. That is why buzzcheep is compiling a list of universities or better to say bringing you information about these universities.

Some of the institutions are flexible with their tuition fees, which allows students to make fees deposit instrumentally.

Before we get into the cheapest universities you can study in, please allow to get an insight:

If you are on a low budget and desire to study in the United Kingdom, please you should avoid universities in London, the reason been that, cost of living in London is very expensive. So therefore, you can get an affordable university in London, but then the cost of living in that city is very expensive, so then it is advisable to check universities that are outside of London.

But if you think the UK is still too expensive for you, then you should try Estonia, Czech Republic, Sweden, Portugal, etc. All these other countries are cheaper than the UK, you should check them and see if they meet your budget.
