Study Fees
Dear Prospective Student,
We would like to inform you of a recent repeal made to the 'Landeshochschulgebührengesetz' of Baden-Württemberg.
The repeal provides that, in certain instances, students have to pay study fees. This will affect the following candidates:
International Students from non-EU countries
For international students, entering the EU for the purpose of studies, the State of Baden-Württemberg will henceforth impose a fee of 1,500 Euros per semester.
Second Degree Studies
Under the repeal, students who have completed their first degree (Bachelor or Master) in Germany must, for their second degree, pay a fee of 650 Euros per semester.
The state government initiated the government proposal draft, as an increase in revenue was considered the preferred alternative to drastic cuts to higher education institutions and both components of the repeal were considered to be measured and reasonable.
As before, in Baden-Württemberg there are no general study fees for first degree studies!
Please find further detailed information, including fee waivers e.g. fee reductions, available on the pages of the State Ministry of Baden Württemberg for Sciences, Research and Arts, via the following link:
For further questions please contact us per email.
Best regards
