For 2022-2023 the cost of registering for the AAT for this qualification is £225, which must be paid to the AAT. It is advantageous to pay this as soon as possible, in order to gain access to the wide range of learning resources available from the AAT. Please be aware that criminal offences, bankruptcy and IVAs will affect your application for membership with the AAT. See course leader for further details. Initial unit exams are included in the course fees. Exam resits are an extra cost, which at level 3 is £60 for all exams. There is also an extra cost for course textbooks, which is approximately £60. If you are able to access this course for free, you should be aware that you are still required to pay for the extra fees to AAT, any exam resits, and the course books, although you can also apply for a college bursary to help with a contribution towards these costs.
