Pay the tuition fees or arrange a (digital) direct debit payment before the start date of your degree programme.

For example:

• Start date 1 September: the university must have received your payment no later than 31 August*.
• Start date 1 February: the university must have received your payment no later than 31 January*.

Please note:
An academic year runs from 1 September to 31 August.

• If you start on 1 September, you pay (initially) for twelve months.
• If you start on 1 February, you pay for the period from February to August (seven months). If you continue with your degree programme as of 1 September, you will pay again from 1 September to 31 August.

If you deregister, you may be entitled to a refund of (part of) the tuition fees.

* For non-EU students, other deadlines may apply due to immigration procedure.

As long as you have not paid your tuition fees you are not officially registered. This will have consequences for

• your student grant from DUO,
• student travel pass (DUO),
• computer account,
• access to the University Library,
• access to other University facilities.

You can transfer the entire amount to account number NL84ABNA0425600904 of 'Rijksuniversiteit Groningen', stating ‘onderwijsgelden’. Also state your student number or your name, initials and date of birth.

If you transfer the amount from a foreign account in another currency, also state the University’s BIC or SWIFT code: ABNANL 2A. The address of the ABN AMRO Bank.N.V. is Gustav Mahlerlaan 10, 1082 PP Amsterdam.

In that case, we cannot debit the tuition fees. We recommend that you make the payment yourself.

Yes, as long as you are registered, you have to pay tuition fees, even if you are not taking any courses.

The instalments will be collected in the last week of the months September, November, January, March and May.

Each instalment is a fifth of your tuition fees plus the one-off administration fee.

Een Bewijs Betaald Collegegeld (BBC) is een bewijsstuk waaruit blijkt dat je het wettelijk collegegeld hebt betaald. Dit bewijsstuk heb je nodig als je, naast de Rijksuniversiteit Groningen, ook ingeschreven wilt staan bij een andere instelling in het hoger onderwijs.

Je vraagt een BBC op de volgende manier aan:

• Via Studielink kun je aangeven dat je via een BBC wil betalen
• Vul het Aanvraagformulier verklaring in en het BBC wordt gestuurd naar de instelling waar je je ook wilt inschrijven.

Je krijgt alleen een BBC als je officieel staat ingeschreven. Dit houdt o.a. in dat je het verschuldigde collegegeld hebt betaald of dat je machtigingsformulier is verwerkt.

Your employer or somebody else can pay your tuition fees by

• a direct debit payment or a personal payment instruction to their bank.
• an invoice. Fill in the form Application invoice and the payer of your tuition fees will receive an invoice. This will not be possible anymore once the academic year is started.
