Germany 2015/16 - values of student fees

National student fee

In all of the German Länder, studying is free of charge for both full-time and part-time students. Lower Saxony was the last land to give up tuition fees, which it did in 2014/15. In the majority of Länder, low administrative fees are charged to all students.

Students in five Länder are liable to pay fees when exceeding the regular study period.

Students from outside the EU and EEA countries also do not pay fees.
