Overview

Since 1 September 2023, the study voucher scheme has changed. You will get money or a discount on your student debt instead of credit for a new education programme. More information about the changes in the study voucher scheme

Old scheme: credit for a new education programme

Under the old scheme the study voucher was a credit for a new education programme. You could use the voucher to pay the tuition fees for a new degree programme. More about the old study voucher scheme

New scheme: money instead of study voucher

If you haven’t (fully) used the study voucher, the new scheme automatically applies to you. This means you are eligible for a compensation of about €1,800. It does not make a difference if you are starting a new study programme. More about the new study voucher scheme
