How much should university fees actually be?

As previously mentioned, I'm applying for a second masters. What I wasn't told was that if you complete a qualification at certain level, you cannot then go and complete another one at the same level and still receive government funding. You have to 'progress'. That's fine but I'm stuck. I can't progress in my field until I've completed a relevant masters i.e. in History.

Kings for Modern History part time:
£2450 + £1000 ELQ = £6900 total

UCL for European History:
£4,865

Queen Mary's for History:
£6,150 per year

Kings and Queen Mary both charge a premium, or penalty for doing a second masters.

It gives an indication as to what some of these courses actually cost. International students are charged highly inflated fees, because universities are simply allowed to...
