Studying at a Business School involves a great number of costs. In addition to tuition fees of up to € 50,000 per year, costs are incurred for materials (computer, books, etc.), living (rent, food, clothing) and travel.
Costs and financing

For most students the major sources of financing are their own resources. Since many degrees can only be obtained after a few years of professional experience, a savings programme can be set up for this purpose whilst in employment.
