National student fee

Higher education institutions (HEIs) define their fees at the beginning of the academic year, differentiating according to the students' socio-economic background, field of studies, cycle, study status – full-time or part-time – and year of registration. Furthermore, HEIs are obliged to exempt students benefiting from student support, and may also exempt some students on the basis of merit. The total fee income at the end of financial year should not be higher than 20 % of public funding. The ministry responsible for higher education sets the minimum enrolment fee. For the academic year 2016/17, it is EUR 201.58.

Part-time students pay proportionally less than full-time students.

Fees for short cycle higher education programmes vary depending on the provider.

International students pay the same fees as national students.
