Tuition fee for Master's programmes
Students from the Netherlands, other countries within the European Economic Area (EEA), the EU, Switzerland and Suriname pay the statutory tuition fees if they meet the legal requirements.
You are required to pay the institutional tuition fee if:

- after obtaining your Dutch Bachelor's or Master's degree you enrol in a second degree programme, unless your second programme is in education or health care.
