Care Leavers Glossary
Please select a letter from the A-Z list below:
Tutor
The university equivalent to a teacher. Most universities have a
system where each student has a Personal Tutor who they can go to
for support and advice about their course and university life.
Tuition Fees
The money that you have to pay to the university to cover the
cost of teaching you. You do not need to find this money up-front,
you will be given a student loan which
you will only pay back when you can afford to.
