Your study financing at a glance

Money for your studies

Monthly amounts, one-off payment or your own custom-made plan. You can get up to €30,000 and apply for the funding you need – for your studies and living costs. Can be combined with other sources of funding.

It’s all about you

You are important to us. You have a personal contact person, from the moment you apply for financing until the first years of your professional life.

Academy: Everything for your success

More than just a student loan: As a customer, you will receive information about key workshops, events, and personal advice for your success into the early years of your career – because money isn’t everything.

Your
community

You can do it alone, however, together with others is even better. You benefit from a community that helps you get ahead. Get to know other students, potential employers, and top speakers.

Study now, pay back later in instalments

Unlike a traditional student loan, you pay between 3 and 10 percent of your future gross income over 3 to 10 years into the study fund. Together we determine the expected start date of the repayment.

Reverse intergenerational contract

Study now and pay your contribution to the study fund afterwards. This is how the reverse intergenerational contract works. This way, you make it possible for future students to study.

Your security

Another advantage over a traditional student loan: If your future income falls below a minimum income, your payments to the study fund are paused.

…with the trust of our partners

Funding through the Skills and Education Programme is made possible through the support of the European Union, under the European Fund for Strategic Investments (EFSI). The aim of the EFSI is to support the financing and implementation of asset investments in the European Union and to ensure improved access to financing.
