We also take into account the number of children they are supporting and whether your parents are repaying a student loan themselves. The supplementary grant is a gift or becomes a gift if you obtain your diploma within 10 years.

Tuition fees loan

If you are studying at HBO or university, you can borrow money to pay your tuition fees. We call this a tuition fees loan.

How much you can borrow depends on the type of tuition fees you are due. If you pay the statutory tuition fees, you can borrow 1/12 of your tuition fees every month. If you pay institutional tuition fees, you can borrow more than this. Exactly how much you can borrow depends on the amount of the institutional fees you pay. However, there is a limit: you can never borrow more than 5 times the amount of the statutory tuition fees.

You are always required to repay the tuition fees loan with interest after completing your education.

Raising a child

If you are studying at MBO, HBO or university and taking care of a child on your own, you are entitled to extra student finance: the single-parent allowance.
