Tuition fees
We believe creative education should be accessible, transparent and free from hidden costs. That’s why we offer flexible tuition plans – pay annually, per semester, monthly or in full with discounts. Extended plans let you spread costs beyond your programme to reduce monthly payments.
Our fees are the same for all students, no matter where you come from, and stay consistent for every year of your studies. A €500 discount is available if you enrol in both a summer short course and a degree within two years.
