Dear all,

I've got a conditional place at KCL for a phd starting in October, I was rejected from the AHRC funding, but believe with working, alternative funding etc, I should be able to scrape enough together to make it happen. However, my major concern is will the fees change halfway through my phd?

Currently 2011/12 fees are £3,750, which is pretty good. However, I'm terrified that I'd commit to the phd and suddenly year 2 KCL turn around and say, errr yeah £14,000 a year now please......

Is it like the BA, once you've committed that's the amount you pay?

I've tried contacting the administrators over this, but they are currently a bit stumped.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Amy
