Have you already obtained a diploma and do you want to know what this means for the tuition fees of your next programme? The Dutch government subsidizes one bachelor's and one master's degree for students who are nationals of an EU/EER country, Suriname, or Switzerland. If you have already earned a degree or diploma, consult the CROHO register.

Second Bachelor's or Master's Degree

If you want to pursue a second bachelor's or master's degree, the (higher) institutional fee generally applies. This is because the university does not receive government subsidies for this. However, there are some exceptions, which are listed at the bottom of the page.
