Admission planning

A little clarity.
A better next step.

Admission planning

Academic eligibility

  • A research-university-level engineering bachelor's in Computer Science or a closely related field, with strong relevant subjects.
  • The general minimum is 75% of the grading scale unless country-specific rules apply.
  • International-diploma Computer Science applicants also need the GRE General Test; meeting minimum criteria does not guarantee a ranked place.

Admission planning

Language requirements

  • IELTS Academic 7.0 overall, every component at least 6.5, or an accepted equivalent.
  • The certificate must be no more than two years old when applying.
  • English-medium study in an unlisted country or overseas branch is not an automatic exemption.

Admission planning

Study intakes

  • September start for this two-year programme.

Admission planning

Application deadlines

  • Non-EU/EFTA applicants with an international bachelor's face ranked-batch selection with a 15 January, 23:59 deadline.
  • The complete-file scholarship deadline is earlier: 1 December 2026 for 2027 consideration, including required tests, scholarship form and reference.
  • Confirm the intended cycle's Computer Science portal instructions rather than using another TU Delft programme's dates.

Admission planning

International tuition

  • The standard institutional master's tuition is €26,479 for academic year 2027/28 (€25,633 for 2026/27), charged annually.
  • It is not the full two-year cost and is not the discounted continuing-student transitional tariff.
  • Living costs, insurance and applicable residence/housing-service charges are additional.
  • A living-funds deposit is not an extra tuition fee; use the personalised financial letter for payment.

Admission planning

Scholarships & funding

  • The Justus & Louise van Effen Excellence Scholarship is a very limited competitive option for eligible international applicants to regular two-year MSc programmes.
  • It covers tuition and contributes to living expenses; second-year continuation requires sufficient progress, including 48 of 60 first-year EC.
  • Submit the complete scholarship file by 1 December 2026; selection is not automatic.
