This course starts in 2027, but Imperial has only published fees up to 2026/27. Expect the 2027 figure to be higher.

Imperial publishes a separate "Overseas fee" for each course and each entry year. £45,500 is the figure Imperial published for 2026 entry, i.e. the 2026/27 academic year, on the 2026-entry version of this course page. The live course page now advertises 2027 entry, but at the time of capture Imperial had not set the 2027-entry Overseas fee: it shows "Not set" and quotes this £45,500 as a guide, so the 2027-entry cost is likely to be higher. Charged for every year of the course. Home (UK) students pay the government-capped fee instead (£9,790 per year for 2026 entry). Imperial also warns of extra course costs (field trips, books, protective clothing) on top of tuition.

Stanford publishes one undergraduate tuition rate for all students; there is no separate international rate. Stanford runs on quarters, and the figure is published per quarter — the 2026-27 rates page covers the Autumn, Winter, Spring and Summer quarters. Stanford states it has a limited amount of financial aid for international students, and international students who do not request aid on the admission application are not eligible to apply for aid at Stanford later in their undergraduate years.

Harvard publishes one undergraduate tuition rate for every Harvard College student; there is no separate international rate, so this figure is what an international student pays. The amount recorded here is TUITION ONLY, not the total cost of attendance: the same page lists fees $6,216, housing $14,250 and food $8,942 on top, giving a billed subtotal of $91,634, and a total of $95,134-$100,134 once estimated personal expenses ($2,500), books ($1,000) and transportation ($0-$5,000) are added. Health insurance of $4,954 for 2026-27 is additionally required unless the student is covered by a family plan. The FAS Registrar publishes the same tuition figure at https://registrar.fas.harvard.edu/tuition-and-fees ("Harvard College Tuition Rates Academic Year 2026-27 Tuition $62,226"). Harvard College states on https://college.harvard.edu/admissions/apply/international-applicants that "Our financial aid policies are the same for all applicants, regardless of nationality or citizenship. All aid is based on financial need, and admissions decisions are made without regard to whether an applicant has applied for financial assistance. Harvard meets each student’s demonstrated need."

This course starts in 2027, but Cambridge has only published fees up to 2026/27. Expect the 2027 figure to be higher.

Cambridge bands overseas courses into fee Groups 1-5; Engineering sits in Group 4 (£44,214), the highest band apart from Group 5 (Medicine/Veterinary Medicine). This is the University composition (course) fee only: all international/overseas fee status students normally have to pay an annual College fee in addition to University tuition fees, which varies between Colleges and is published in Cambridge's 'Undergraduate tuition fees 2026-27' document. The fee page states fees listed are per year and are fixed for the duration of the course. Figures are the published 2026-entry rates; fees for 2027 entry will be published no later than 1 October 2026. Admissions assessment: all applicants must take the Engineering and Science Admissions Test (ESAT), completing Mathematics 1, Mathematics 2 and Physics.

Caltech charges international and domestic undergraduates the same tuition: the Institute publishes a single undergraduate rate and no separate international rate exists, so this is an institution-wide figure that applies to all students rather than a price for this specific option. Published as a nine-month, full academic-year figure. Caltech's academic year runs on three terms (fall, winter, spring) and the catalog states that tuition, fees, housing and food are divided evenly between them; the annual figure is recorded here as published and has not been converted to a per-term rate. Not included: mandatory fees of $2,655, housing $12,711 and food/meals $9,285, a one-time $600 Orientation Fee for entering undergraduates, and the Caltech Student Health Insurance Plan (waivable with comparable coverage). Financial aid for international undergraduates (verified on caltech.edu): admissions is need-blind for domestic students but need-aware for international students because the international aid fund is limited (www.admissions.caltech.edu/afford); international students must apply for aid as an incoming first-year or they may not apply in later years, no aid is available to international transfer or 3/2 entrants, and international students are not eligible for US Federal Student Aid (www.finaid.caltech.edu/applying/international-students).

UCL prices its overseas fee per programme; this course sits in its standard science and engineering band (£44,400 per year for 2027/28). UK students pay £10,050. International undergraduates have a cohort guarantee, so the fee is not increased during the programme. Read from the page in a browser: ucl.ac.uk returns HTTP 403 to non-browser clients, so this figure cannot be re-checked by the drift sweep.

Non-subsidised rate: what an international student pays WITHOUT the MOE Tuition Grant. With the Tuition Grant the same programme costs S$18,050/year (ASEAN nationals) or S$21,400/year (all other international students), but the grant carries a bond — non-Singaporean recipients must serve a three-year service obligation with a Singapore entity after graduating. The page states subsidised international and non-subsidised fees are inclusive of GST (prevailing GST 9%); Singapore Citizen/PR fees are exclusive of GST. NUS prices per College/Faculty/School rather than per degree: this is the 'Design and Engineering' row. The College of Design and Engineering has two further rows that do NOT apply to this programme — Built Environment (S$34,250, cheaper) and Architecture/Landscape Architecture (S$40,450, dearer). Cohort-based — this rate applies to the AY2026/2027 intake for their whole candidature.

HKU charges one flat tuition rate to non-local (international) undergraduates across all of its STEM Faculties and Schools collectively (Dentistry, Engineering, Medicine, Science; School of Biomedical Engineering, School of Computing and Data Science, School of Innovation) -- HKD 249,000/year, inclusive of a STEM-specific surcharge over the non-STEM rate (HKD 224,000/year for Architecture, Arts, Business and Economics, Education, Law, Social Sciences and School of Future Media). HKU's own term for this population is 'Non-local Students' rather than 'international'.

2026 · Faculty-wide rate · International students

NTU's fee table splits non-subsidised international tuition into 'Lab Based' (S$40,600/year) and 'Non-Lab Based' (S$36,350/year) tiers under the row 'All Programmes (except for those listed below)' -- the exceptions named elsewhere on the page are Accountancy/Business-related degrees, Medicine, and the Renaissance Engineering Programme, none of which this programme is. Engineering, natural-science and computing degrees are laboratory-based instruction, so the Lab Based figure applies here; NTU's page does not spell out the lab/non-lab designation by named school, so this is the collector's read of the general classification rather than a school-by-school statement. This is the NON-subsidised rate, i.e. what an international student pays without Singapore's MOE Tuition Grant. With the Tuition Grant the same seat costs S$18,050/year (ASEAN nationals) or S$21,400/year (all other international students, both inclusive of GST) -- but accepting the grant binds the (non-Singaporean) recipient to a three-year work-in-Singapore service obligation after graduating, so the subsidised figure is not recorded as the headline fee. 'Annual tuition fee is fixed at the 2026 rate for the duration of the degree programme' -- NTU labels this by admission cohort year ('Accepted Programme Offer in 2026') rather than an academic-year range, hence the period label rather than the academic year.

Tsinghua publishes this figure without stating which year it applies to, so it may already be out of date. Treat it as a starting point and check the course page for the current rate. Flag it below if you know it has changed.

Fee is for Zijing College's Global Talents in Science and Engineering Program — Tsinghua's fully English-taught undergraduate engineering track. This program is open only to foreign citizens (not domestic Chinese students), so this is genuinely the program's own price, not a converted domestic rate. A one-time 800 RMB application fee and 800 RMB/yr medical insurance apply on top. The admissions guide is dated/versioned '2026' (published 30 Sept 2025, application window through 28 Feb 2026) but the fee table itself carries no explicit academic-year label, hence `undated: true`.

$73,946/yr is Cornell's 2026-27 undergraduate tuition for out-of-state (non-New-York-resident) students at any Cornell college, and for New York residents at the endowed colleges (which includes the College of Engineering) — this is the rate every international student pays. New York residents at the three state "contract colleges" (Agriculture and Life Sciences, Human Ecology, Industrial and Labor Relations) instead pay a lower $49,816/yr; that discount is tied to New York State residency, not citizenship, and does not apply to international students. Confirmed by Cornell's own news office: "For 2026-27, undergraduate tuition will be $73,946, a 3.76% increase, for out-of-state residents attending any of Cornell's colleges and New York state residents attending the endowed colleges... the Cornell Duffield College of Engineering."

2027 indicative total course fee · Priced for this course · International students

Melbourne charges international tuition per subject by discipline band rather than as a flat course rate, so the actual cost moves with enrolment; the figure stored here is the university's own 2027 indicative total course fee from Table 2 of its official Tuition Fee Tables publication. That publication's printed first-year cell ($56,451 - $62,464) disagrees with the indicative first-year ranges published on this course's own fees page ($43,868 - $57,900 for 2026 and $45,928 - $63,924 for 2027), but both publications state an identical total-course figure, so the agreed total is the figure recorded. The same fees page states these estimates assume a standard full-time enrolment and that actual tuition fees payable will be the sum of the fees for all subjects enrolled. Accepting an offer requires a minimum deposit of AUD$17,000, credited against tuition; Overseas Student Health Cover is additional, and international students do not pay the Student Services and Amenities Fee. Included on StudyPath because the Bachelor of Design hosts the university’s undergraduate computing majors (Computing and Software Systems, Data Science) alongside its design studios.
