It states that Non-EU students must 'pay at least the first semester's tuition and any applicable fees in advance', that the exact required advance payment is set out in the 'Financial Information attachment provided together with the student's Letter of Acceptance', and that for later semesters students may follow a payment plan in instalments subject to the EUR 1,500 initial registration deposit.
