A committee established by the university has proposed that the individual faculties significantly raise the tuition fees imposed on students from non-EEA countries. ESHCC, in particular, intends to raise its tuition fees drastically, to \u20ac9,900 annually, up from \u20ac6,900. This constitutes a 43% increase.<\/p>\n
The increase only concerns university-set tuition fees for Bachelor\u2019s students, meaning it will only affect students from outside the European Economic Area, a zone that largely overlaps with but is not identical to the EU. Students who wish to get a second Bachelor\u2019s degree after completing their first will also be charged the university-set tuition fee. The increase will only affect new students. Students from the Netherlands and other EU member states will continue to pay statutory tuition fees, which will rise by 1.9% in 2023, to an amount of \u20ac2,209 annually.<\/p>\n
ESHCC is not the only EUR faculty that will raise its university-set tuition fees significantly. ESPhil, ESSB, ESHPM and ESL will also charge their students from non-EEA countries higher tuition fees in the 2023-2024 academic year: \u20ac9,900, i.e. a 39% increase. Fee rates will increase less drastically at ESE and RSM (12 and 3 per cent, respectively), whose tuition fees were quite high to start with. Non-EEA students wishing to get a degree from ESE or RSM will be charged \u20ac11,100 annually. Medical students have always been charged higher fees because of all the expensive equipment and materials required for their teaching, and they, too, will see a considerable fee increase: \u20ac28,400, up from \u20ac24,000, which constitutes an 18% increase.<\/p>\n
