How much does Aschaffenburg University of Applied Sciences cost for international students?

TH Aschaffenburg charges no tuition fees for its full-time Bachelor and Master programmes, because it is funded by the state of Bavaria.

What every student pays is the semester contribution of 70 EUR per semester, which goes in full to Studentenwerk Würzburg. It does not include a semester ticket, which TH Aschaffenburg does not currently offer. Students can buy the discounted Deutschlandticket for 43 EUR per month.
