You should be prepared to cover all your living costs independently. Additionally, if you are a non-EU/EEA student admitted to an English-taught bachelor’s or master’s programme, you would be required to pay tuition fees.
Some universities may offer scholarships or tuition fee waivers both for bachelor’s and master’s level international students. Funding options also exist for doctoral level.
| Funding Type | Who It’s For | Details |
|---|---|---|
| University Scholarships | Non-EU/EEA international students | Offered by individual universities; usually tuition fee waivers or reductions; living costs not included |
| Tuition Fees | Non-EU/EEA students | Bachelor’s and Master’s programs have tuition fees; amount varies by university and program |
| Doctoral Studies Funding | All nationalities | Doctoral programs usually have no tuition fees; funding comes through salaried research positions or grants |
| Living Expenses (Self-funded) | All international students | Students must cover their own living costs; estimated monthly expenses around €900–€1,200 |
| Part-time Work | International students | Allowed to work part-time during studies; income is usually not enough to fully support studies |
