Course in depth
What this course covers, who it suits and where it leads.
What you'll study
This course focuses on the financial analysis of business operations within a broader management framework. A typical Accounting & Finance degree progresses from foundations to specialism. Year 1 covers Financial Accounting (double-entry and reporting frameworks), Introduction to Finance (time value of money, markets and risk), and Quantitative Methods for Business (statistics and spreadsheet modelling). Year 2 introduces Management Accounting (costing, budgeting and performance measurement), Corporate Finance (capital structure and investment appraisal), and Financial Reporting & Analysis (interpreting accounts and audit basics). Year 3 typically offers specialist options such as Audit & Assurance, Taxation, Corporate Finance, Financial Risk, and Fintech, alongside Advanced Corporate Reporting and a dissertation or applied project, often aligned with professional-body exemptions.
Who it's for
This course suits people curious about how money, strategy, and operations interconnect within organisations. You'll thrive if you're comfortable with numerical analysis but interested in the human and strategic dimensions too, not just spreadsheets, but what they reveal about business decisions. The course appeals to those wanting a broad business foundation with financial depth, rather than pure accounting or pure management. You should be prepared for independent work, especially during your final project, and ready to develop professional capabilities alongside technical knowledge. If you want to understand business through a financial lens, this is a natural fit.

International students
What applying to University of Hull from outside the UK involves: fees, English, visa, funding and living costs.
Tuition fees
International tuition is set per course by University of Hull; international fees are typically £12,000–£30,000/year for classroom subjects and higher for lab/clinical ones. You’re not eligible for UK Tuition Fee or Maintenance Loans, so plan for fees plus living costs upfront.
English language
Most UK undergraduate courses ask for around IELTS 6.0–6.5 (no band below 5.5–6.0), or an accepted equivalent. If you’re just short, most universities run a pre-sessional English course that counts towards the requirement.
Student visa
You’ll usually need a Student visa (Student Route). After you accept an offer the university issues a CAS; you then show funds for fees plus about £1,023–£1,334/month living costs and pay the Immigration Health Surcharge for NHS access.
Scholarships & funding
Many universities offer international/global scholarships (often £2,000–£6,000/yr), check University of Hull’s funding pages.
Living costs
Budget roughly £1,100–£1,400/month outside London and £1,400–£1,800/month in London for rent, food and travel; the figure also matters for your visa.
Working while you study
A Student visa usually allows up to 20 hours/week in term time and full-time in holidays, useful alongside study, though not something to rely on for fees.
Visa rules and fees change. Always confirm the current requirements with University of Hull and gov.uk before you apply.
