It costs (roughly) GBP 3000 to attend as a UK citizen and GBP 9000-11000 as a foreigner depending on subject - and I believe the individual universities have no say in it, it's set by the government. So compared to the US, you could get a bargain.

However, top US universities are very generous about scholarships for high-achieving individuals even if they are non-nationals. UK universities have very few scholarships to start with and most of them are closed to non-citizens.
I come from Trinidad & Tobago, and most of my schoolmates went to American universities for this reason: UK universities are completely unattainable to a non-western income.
