Pre-Master's tuitionfee

When enrolling in the pre-master program, the program determines the total number of credits for your bridging program. With a HBO prior education this is standard 30. On the basis of this program the level of the rate is determined: number of credits * 1/60 statutory rate (A). You pay your fee in one go at the start of the program (no refund possible). Halfway through the year any exemptions or additional courses will be settled. After completing your bridging program, you register for the Master and pay the statutory tuition fee.  

Payment tuition fee

When you have registered in Studielink, you can indicate how you want to pay the tuition fees via Studielink. The tuition fees can be paid in the following ways: 

  • Authorization standing order  
  • Bank transfer / deposit 
  • Invoice 

Authorization  
You can issue an authorization in which you authorize TU/e to deduct the tuition fee from a bank or SEPA account you specified. This may be an authorization for a one-off direct debit whereby the full amount is debited from the account number in one go or an authorization for amortization in ten installments (payment in ten installments is not possible when registering as a pre-master or an external student).

If you opt for payment in ten installments, a one-off amount of € 24 administration costs will be charged. This amount is debited together with the first installment. If you register during the academic year, you can no longer opt for a one-off direct debit. You can still participate in (the remainder of) the collection in installments. The tuition fee amount will then be divided over the outstanding debt collection installments.

For the academic year, you can arrange the tuition fee authorization via Studielink from the second half of June 2023. You will receive an email from StudieLink with more information and instructions.

By signing the account holder declares to be in agreement with the conditions that apply to the authorization of the collection of tuition fees. The authorization must also be signed by you if you are not the account holder.

Dates of direct debits
The collection of the installments takes place around the 25th of each month. The installments are from the month of September to June, so in 10 installments. The one-off collection will take place around September 25.

Deposit  
You can choose to transfer the full tuition fee to the TU/e account number: 
NL86RABO0150183704 in the name of Eindhoven University of Technology 
Include your initials, name, date of birth, your student number (IDNR), and if known your invoice number. 
Please note: enrolment is only complete when the full amount has been received on the TU/e account. 

Invoice  
Will someone other than you (e.g. a company or scholarship provider) pay your tuition fees and do you want to receive an invoice for this, the information can be found here.
Then print the 'Application form for invoice' and fill it out completely.  
State the name of the company, the contact person and the address on the request.  
The form can be submitted to or sent to Education and Student Affairs, MetaForum 1.300, Postbus 513, 5600 MB Eindhoven.  
Please note: do not transfer any tuition fees to the account number stated under "transfer / deposit", but to the account number stated on the invoice.  
This prevents double payments.

Exemption tuition fees

If you are enrolling for a second study program (secondary enrollment), and you have already paid tuition fees at another university or college, you may be eligible for a reduction or an exemption from the tuition fees to be paid. You can request a BBC at your institution through Studielink. If your institution does not support BBC via Studielink, please enclose an original Proof of Paid Tuition Fees, issued for the TU/e, with your registration form. The Proof of Paid Tuition Fee must be submitted at the same time as the registration request. A retrospectively submitted Proof of Paid Tuition Fee for a refund of the tuition fees already paid will not be accepted. Please note: A Proof of Paid Tuition Fee cannot be used for enrollment as an external student.

Non-EEA students pay a guarantee fee to confirm that they will enroll at TU/e. 
The guarantee fee includes the first year tuition fee.  
EEA students do not pay a guarantee fee. Below are the options for EEA students to pay their tuition fee.

Refund of tuition fees upon request for deregistration

An academic year runs from September to August

The remaining tuition fee amount will be reimbursed to the bank account mentioned via Studielink no later than ten weeks after the termination date of your enrollment.

Obviously we will take into consideration whether the tuition fee has been paid in full or whether you are paying in installments.

You are entitled to the return of one twelfth of the tuition fee for each month still left in the academic year after the termination of your enrollment.

For example: You wish to terminate your enrollment on December 1. This means that you have to submit the form for termination of enrollment in November. ESA terminates your enrollment as of December 1 and reimburses 9/12 (December to August) of the tuition fee (providing of course that the tuition fee had been paid in full and not in installments!).

Should you terminate your enrollment from July 1 or August 1 you are not able to claim reimbursement for these months!

Impact of Brexit on tuition fees and student finance

If you are already living in the Netherlands on or before 31 December 2020

In this case, you fall under the withdrawal agreement. For British students who are living in the Netherlands before the transition period ends on 31 December 2020 nothing will change with regard to the entitlement to pay statutory tuition fees and receive student finance. This applies even if you start a new course after the transition period ends.

If you come to live in the Netherlands after 31 December 2020

In this case you do not fall under the withdrawal agreement. British nationals will be treated as non-EU/EEA citizens. The type of residence permit you hold will determine whether you are entitled to receive student finance and pay statutory tuition fees. In most cases you will be not be entitled to receive student finance and pay statutory tuition fees, and will have to pay institutional fees.
