Fees and financing

EMBS participation fees are about € 3500 per year. The aforementioned amount is made up of:
  • € 2500 as EMBS tuition fee per year to be paid to the University of Savoie Mont Blanc as the main coordinator of the EMBS programme;
  • about € 400 euro per year to be paid to each partner university as national administrative fee (exact amount to be confirmed upon admission).

It is a condition of student's enrolment that he/she has sufficient financial resources to pay for the EMBS. Self-paying students must provide evidence of their ability to cover tuition fees. Sponsored students must provide evidence of their sponsorship. EMBS students might have the possibility to be supported through grants and scholarships offered by the four Universities and their partners. However grants and scholarships will not cover all costs of living in Europe and attending the EMBS programme (fees, accommodation, books, travel,..). For further information please contact embs [at] univ-smb.fr. EMBS students are NOT eligible for the "Opera Universitaria Scholarship (OUS)" and "Eiffel Grant".

Each EMBS partner university provides a service to help EMBS students find a suitable accommodation.

All applicants are strongly recommended to read carefully all the information about living costs in Italy, France, Germany and Spain, prior to confirming their application.
