The tuition fee for one semester is 2500 EUR for the September 2023 intake. However, after admission, you have to pay for the first two semesters in one sum (5000 EUR) because it is the requirement of the Hungarian Immigration Office. From the second year, you pay for one semester at a time, and you can pay in three instalments. If your visa is rejected and you cannot start your studies, we refund the whole amount of the tuition fee you paid.

Documents issued by the university and required by the embassy:

• Letter of acceptance
• Certificate of payment

Health insurance
The University of Szeged offers health insurance, called Generali Studium, for all admitted students. Health insurance is not included in the tuition fee but can be purchased at the Student Service Office after the official registration is finished. Generali Studium is designed specifically for international students and it covers the costs of general medical services in Hungary. Students are responsible for acquiring their own health insurance for their visa application.
