Fees

Euroculture students do not pay participation fees to the universities they attend, but directly to the Euroculture Consortium. All students pay the same participation fees (outlined below), regardless of which universities they choose to attend during their studies. Euroculture distinguishes between participation fees for EU/EEA nationals and non-EU/EEA nationals.

EU/EEA passport holders:

€2000 per semester with the standard Consortium Waiver (€8000 for the entire programme)
€2500 per semester without the standard Consortium Waiver (€10000 for the entire programme)
European nationals may opt for a two-year AON ICS Complete Health Insurance Policy of €1000, which can be included in their fees.

The Consortium Waiver reduces the overall applicable tuition fee by €2000. This waiver is applied by default to all EU/EEA students, with the exception of those applicants receiving a full scholarship covering living costs from sources other than the Erasmus Mundus scholarship. Study loans are not considered a scholarship. Partial subsidies and government grants do not disqualify you from receiving the waiver.

AON ICS Complete insurance is included by default for all students participating in the Euroculture programme.

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 Consortium coordinator of the programme (euroculture@rug.nl). The students can ask for financial support from various programmes – for more details see Scholarships.

Non-EU/EEA passport holders:

€5000 per semester, including AON ICS Complete Health Insurance (€20.000 for the entire programme).

Non-EU/EEA applicants can not apply for the Consortium Waiver.

Payment is due to the University of Groningen, Netherlands. For details see the consortium consortium website.
