Basic Grant

Supplementary Grant

Approximately €320 per month. Requires working a minimum of 8 hours per week. It is awarded upon signing the employment contract.

Based on household income. Processed using parents' tax return, the amount for this grant depends on the parents incomes.

The healthcare allowance covers much of the essential medical costs. The student travel product covers public transport across the country. Both make daily student life much more affordable.

Further Financial Options

Long-Term Student Loans

In addition to grants, EU students can access low-interest student loans. The maximum repayment period is 35 years, with interest rates recalculated annually (e.g., 2.21% in 2025).
