FEES

Students fees include registration, certification, tuition fees.
Programmes in foreign language are not available.
The number of part-time students at short-cycle level is however very low as only one programme is offered both as a full and a part-time study programme.
A maximum fee of EUR 24 000 applies for only one master's programme (Master degree in Logistics and Supply Chain Management).
The rector of the university can decide to partially or completely waive tuition fees in individual cases.

Type of Grants

DIRECT FINANCIAL SUPPORT - GRANTS

Need-based and universal grants are available to home full and part-time students.
International students are not eligible for state financial aid. Public grants for international students at the University of Luxembourg are offered directly through the University.
The maximum amount of universal grants includes a base grant of EUR 2 398/ year, a "family grant", which consists of EUR 574/year and is granted to students whose family includes one or more eligible student(s). For studies abroad, a student can request EUR 2 982 mobility grant per year. The reimbursement of tuition fees up to maximum amount of EUR 1 900/year can also be requested. Students can request modifications of their grants until the end of the year. The reported values are therefore indicative estimations.
For first and second cycles, only the University of Luxembourg (sole public university in Luxembourg) is considered. Students living abroad, but commuting daily to Luxembourg, are also included, as most of them are eligible for grants (for instance, if their parents work in Luxembourg). For the short cycle, every institution awarding ISCED 5 degrees are considered.
There is no age limit for access to grants.

Annual loan amounts (in EUR)

DIRECT FINANCIAL SUPPORT - LOANS
