Tuition fees for 2022-2023

There are different kinds of tuition fees: the statutory tuition fees and the institutional tuition fees. The amount you will pay in tuition depends on:

• your nationality;
• the programme in which you enrol;
• whether you are a full-time or part-time student (applies only to the statutory tuition fees).

These statutory tuition fees apply for Dutch students, students from other countries within the European Economic Area (EEA), the EU, Switzerland and Suriname, provided they meet the statutory criteria. 

Fees for first-year students
