Tuition and Fees for Exchange Students and Dual-Degree Students

If you are coming from one of our partner universities for a semester or year of study, or want to take part in a dual-degree programme, please check with your home university to find out about fees and tuition during your studies at the Hochschule Worms. Please check for further details also the application site for exchange students and dual-degree students.

You will only need to pay a small semester contribution. This contribution covers administrative and support costs. Furthermore, if needed you can access a cheaper public transportation ticket and access to the university’s inexpensive student cafeteria (Mensa). The semester contribution is no tuition fee.
