Post graduate degrees vary in price anyway. The one I'm meant to be starting in October costs £8000 a year. Unfortunately I've decided to take a gap year and change direction with my studies so I won't be doing that now anyway, but fortunately the course I'm changing to is less anyway.
Also, fee changes have had affect for me every year since being at university rather than staying static so I wouldn't hold my breath anyway.
