Fee for constituted student body 18.00 € 
Total amount 148.00 €

All fees have to be paid by 10 February for a summer semester and by 10 August for a winter semester (during the re-registration process) even if the 10.02. or 10.08. is a Saturday or Sunday. Late payments will be charged a penalty for late re-registration of 20.00 Euro.

To check wether or not Ulm University has received your payment, please use your online services.

Ulm University is changing its bank account, so payment of contributions and fees for the winter semester 2024/25 is not yet possible.

Information on tuition fees for second degree students:

Students pursuing a second degree must pay 650 EUR per semester. Students training to become oral surgeons are exempt. As a rule, your programme will count as a second degree if you have already completed a bachelor’s and master’s degree in Germany.

Should you be liable to tuition fees, you will receive a notification of fees in addition to your letter of admission. Please take note of this notification and promptly return the corresponding information sheet.  If you receive no notification of tuition fees, you are not liable to such fees

Information on tuition fees for international students:

From winter semester 2017/18 onwards, international students wishing to study and pursue a degree in Baden-Württemberg who are not EU nationals (third-country nationals) must pay tuition fees amounting to 1,500 EUR per semester. Further information can be retrieved here
