What costs do I have to expect?

HSBI students do not have to pay tuition fees if they spend their semester abroad at a partner university. However, a semester contribution like that at HSBI may have to be paid.

You will have to pay for everything else (flight, accommodation, cost of living, etc.) yourself. How much you will have to pay depends on travel costs, the accommodation you choose, current exchange rates and local cost of living. Please find money-saving tips in the experience reports written by students from previous semesters (ILIAS: Repository > Zentrale Angebote > International Office). You will also find information on the cost of living in other countries on DAAD’s website: www.daad.de/laenderinformationen/de/
