Fees and Funding

There are no tuition fees for PhD students, but applicants are expected to cover living and accommodation costs. Doctoral applicants are exempt from the general application fee (EUR 100) that applies to some non-EU/EEA applicants for degree-leading programmes; applicants must submit a funding plan as part of the application since study rights do not include funding.
