Education Cost?
The cost of studying in Germany is very affordable. We’ve noticed that many students misunderstand the notion of “free education” in Germany. Some of them wrongly believe they won’t need to pay anything and some cannot believe that really studying in Germany comes that cheap.
There are a lot of things you need to know about the cost of studying in Germany and we’re going to address and resolve this issue for you to the tiniest detail in this article. Tuition fees Tuition fees are the first thing students tend to (over) think of when planning to study abroad.
In Germany, you will be relieved from such a concern. In contrast to other popular study destinations in the world where tuition fees present the biggest concern, international students in Germany cannot relate to this. A government plan voted in 2014 abolished tuition fees for all students enrolled in public universities, including those coming from overseas.
This has been a major driver for the expanding of international enrollment and now more than 380,000 foreign students are attending university in this country. At maximum, the cost of your annual fees in private German universities will be around €30,000.
This is way lower to what you would be paying in other popular study destinations. Additional note: Although some of the universities mentioned above charge annual fees above 30,000, if you compare with the cost of attending universities in other countries you would see a large difference.
For example, for MBA degrees in prestigious private business schools in Germany, you have to pay around €35,000 annually at the maximum, whereas tuition fees for MBA degrees in the UK, for example, can easily amount to €50,000.
