The tuition fee of the Euroculture Programme is a result of a complicated calculation of the total costs and other funding in the member universities. It was calculated by the consortium as a common admission fee of the whole consortium. The fee will account for all the fees that the students are normally asked to pay in the individual universities in all the four semesters, including the tuition fee, the diploma fees, registration fees etc.
Participation costs for EU/EEA citizens
The fee is € 9000 (maximum) including insurance; without the insurance the fee is calculated to € 8100 (maximum).
The total amount of € 8100 (or € 9000 with insurance) is to be paid to the University of Groningen (Rijksuniversiteit Groningen), which then redistributes the fees to the individual universities.
The students may apply for an additional consortium waiver, which is € 1 800 for 2024-2026.
The system of the payment is organized by the coordinating institution, the University of Groningen. For further information see the consortium website or contact the general coordinator of the programme (euroculture@rug.nl). The students can ask for financial support from various programmes – for more details see Scholarships.
Participation costs for all other countries
