Most people underestimate how quickly the extras add up &mdash; tuition is just the beginning.
&bull; Tuition for 2025/26 is &pound;57,850, with a separate &pound;120 application fee. &bull; Cambridge Judge suggests budgeting at least &pound;17,000 for living expenses over the year. &bull; That &pound;17K doesn&rsquo;t include the visa fee or the NHS surcharge (currently &pound;776), which together push upfront costs over &pound;1,000. &bull; Students usually spend between &pound;600&ndash;&pound;1,100/month on rent depending on housing choice &mdash; shared college housing vs private rental makes a big difference. &bull; Initial settling-in costs (furnishing, laptop, travel) add another &pound;1,000 or so.
On average, students budget around &pound;78,000 in total. Those who plan for anything under &pound;75K usually end up needing extra by mid-year.

The total cost of the Cambridge MFin sits around &pound;75,000 to &pound;80,000 for most students.
The tuition fee for 2025/26 is &pound;57,850, and there's an application fee of &pound;120. On top of that, the school recommends budgeting at least &pound;17,000&ndash;&pound;20,000 for living expenses. This includes rent, food, transport, utilities, and personal costs.
Living in a college-owned accommodation helps reduce expenses slightly, especially with subsidised dining and access to facilities. But those opting for private rentals may spend more &mdash; especially in central Cambridge, where rent easily crosses &pound;1,000/month.
Worth keeping in mind: upfront costs like NHS surcharge and visa fees add roughly &pound;1,000&ndash;&pound;1,500 more. Some students also include international flights and setup costs, which pushes the total closer to &pound;80K.
