| Item | Cost for international students |
|---|---|
| Protestant Theology (church degree) | No tuition fees |
| Semester contribution (everyone) | 82.00 EUR per semester |
No tuition does not mean no proof of funds. For the student visa you still need to show 11,904 EUR for the year, usually in a blocked account.
