Studying with the i2i International Soccer Academy at Northumbria University starts at £34,500 per year for International students joining us in September 2025. The fee includes your academic tuition, the soccer development programme and initial accommodation at Trinity Square, one of our University-managed residences. A detailed breakdown of costs are outlined in applicant offer letters.
Please note that whilst academic tuition and soccer development programme fees will be honoured for your duration of study should you remain on your course, the University reserves the right to increase accommodation charges each year prior to re-contracting rooms.
General living expenses such as food and travel are not included, however the cost of living in Newcastle is amongst the lowest in the UK. For any additional academic course costs, please visit the specific course pages. The university library provides free access to all books and other references for module reading lists, however some titles are advised for student purchase.
