RUC's table for entry from September 2026 quotes EUR 8,000 per 30-ECTS semester, EUR 16,000 annually and EUR 32,000 for 120 ECTS. Its general fee-page introduction still refers to 2025/26, so obtain the final rate for a new 2027 offer. Accommodation and other living costs are additional. Fees are not a university-wide average. Confirm the exact course, fee year, currency, deposit, extra charges and refund conditions before paying.

Fee-paying non-EU/EEA applicants apply by 15 January at 23:59 CET for September entry; the application system opens one month earlier. The later 1 March date applies to EU/EEA/Swiss/Danish applicants and qualifying tuition-exempt residents. Late applications are not accepted. Master's study starts once a year on 1 September. This is the published 2025–27 programme, not a promise of an unchanged format after the 2028 reform. A semester start date is not an application closing date.
