Tuition fee and financial support

Studying at a university of applied sciences is not free of charge: in addition to your registration fee, you have to consider costs for your courses, your laptop, and the rent of your room. Not every student can afford it all just like that. On this page, we collect all the various ways to pay for your studies. 

Alternative study tracks

Not every student can follow standard study programmes and attend classes full-time. Fortunately, Artevelde UAS offers many ways to fill in your study programme flexibly. Together with the programme counsellor of your chosen programme, you can then map out an individual route.
