National student fee
There are two basic types of financial status for students: state-funded students do not pay fees, and self-financed
students do. State-funded places, available for both full- and part-time students, are awarded through a centralised
admissions procedure primarily based on academic performance but where some weight is given to disadvantaged
and disabled students. In 2015, 64.7 % of students were state-funded.
Higher education institutions (HEIs) set fees for self-financed students for the different levels and fields of study.
Fees range from HUF 230 000 to 4 400 000 in the 1st cycle and from HUF 300 000 to 3 300 000 in the 2nd cycle.
The fees are between HUF 300 000 and 2 700 000 in undivided master programmes. The fees vary from
HUF 140 000 to HUF 400 000 for short cycle programmes.
All international (non-EU/EEA) students pay fees. Information is not available on fee-ranges.
