* For students who do not register for a full credit load, cost is determined on a per-credit basis of €784 per credit-hour.

 

** Current 2012-2013 tuition rate and fees. These are likely to change for the next academic year.

 

IMPORTANT for students with US federal loans: US Federal Code of Regulations does not permit American students registered at a foreign institution to qualify for federal loans during periods where the student intends to be physically present in the US. Thus, such students should not plan to conduct their internship or thesis in the US if they wish to maintain federal loan eligibility. In addition, students must be registered at least half-time and be making reasonable progress towards a degree in order to qualify for loans or a loan deferment. Therefore, students who request a thesis or Internship extension do NOT qualify for loans beyond the semester in which they are officially registered.
