Educational module of premaster shorter than 1 year
Students that study for a full year, can borrow 1/12 of the tuition fees each month. So by the end of the academic year they have borrowed the full amount of the tuition fees.
If you are registered for a educational module, or a premaster lasting fewer than 12 months, applying for a tuition fees loan is slightly different. If you apply the regular way, you won’t receive the maximum amount. If you do want the maximum amount, please apply using the ‘Levenlanglerenkrediet voor educatieve module of pre-master’ form. You will then receive more than 1/12 of the tuition fees each month.
