Tuition fees
Tuition fees 2015-2016
Information for Dutch and international students
Tuition fee rates are divided into statutory tuition fees and institutional tuition fees.
The statutory tuition fee (except for the part-time rate) is determined annually by the Dutch government. Institutional tuition fee rates are set by the higher education institutions individually, and apply to students who do not meet the conditions for the statutory tuition fee rate.
The tuition fee rate is valid for a full academic year. The rate for enrolment as of 1 February 2016 can be determined by calculating 7/12ths of the given rate.
