Cost of Studying in Andorra: Fee per Credit, Discounts and Student Aid

Fee figures: catalogue of 6 October 2026.

Tuition at the Universitat d'Andorra (UdA) is set by the Andorran government, not by the university, and it is charged per credit rather than as a flat annual fee. The same price applies whatever your nationality or residence. That makes the cost easy to calculate, but it also means there is no cheaper tier for EU students or for Andorran residents.

The price per credit

The government published the 2026/27 amounts in the official gazette, the BOPA (issue 33 of 2026). For an on-campus bachelor's degree the price is €28.10 per ECTS credit. A full-time year is 60 credits, which in our catalogue works out at €1,686 a year for EU and non-EU students alike.

The UdA bachelor's programmes have 180 ECTS credits and take three years, so at this price the tuition for a whole degree comes to about €5,058 (180 credits times €28.10; this is our arithmetic, not a published total). The double bachelor's in Computer Science and Business Administration has 283 credits, which comes to about €7,952 on the same basis.

Part-time study changes the schedule but not the price per credit. The UdA says the nursing degree, for example, can be taken at 10 or 20 credits per semester instead of the full-time 60 a year.

When the price goes up

The price per credit rises by 50% in two cases:

a second degree of the same level at the UdA
a third or later enrolment in the same module

If you expect to retake modules, budget for this.

Discounts and exemptions

The UdA lists these reductions:

Large families and single-parent families: 50% off tuition and academic fees. You need a valid certificate from the Ministry of Social Affairs, or a recognised equivalent if you do not live in Andorra.
Students with a disability: exemption from tuition and academic fees under Decree 137/2026, with the disability card issued by the Ministry of Social Affairs.
Honours in the baccalaureate: students who earned honours (matrícula d'honor) in the Andorran, Spanish or French baccalaureate get 100% off first-year credits, up to 60 credits. Honours earned at the UdA give a discount on the next enrolment if you stay in the same study plan.

The UdA asks for the large-family, single-parent or disability card among the enrolment documents, so have it ready when you enrol.

Paying in instalments and student loans

You can pay tuition in instalments if you enrol in at least 15 credits. The UdA also says that three Andorran banks, Andbank, Creand Crèdit Andorrà and MoraBanc, offer special terms on student loans. The university does not give the interest rates, so ask the bank.

Scholarships and grants

Government study aid: means-tested aid under Law 9/2014 on study aid covers the advanced professional diploma, bachelor's, master's and doctoral studies. Calls are published in the BOPA, and the Ministry keeps a list at ensenyamentsuperior.ad. We could not confirm from official pages whether students who do not live in Andorra are eligible, so ask the Ministry before you count on it.
Mobility aid: the UdA offers aid for compulsory placements abroad and for international mobility. In nursing every student does at least three clinical placements outside Andorra.
Programme grants: for 2026/27 the electricity company FEDA offers a scholarship for women in the Computer Science bachelor's, and there are partial grants for the Data Analytics master's.

Costs outside tuition

The university's pages do not publish a rent or living-cost estimate, and the campus has no student housing, so rent is the main variable. Our catalogue has no student-housing prices for Andorra. To get a residence permit as a non-EU student you must show means equal to 100% of the Andorran minimum wage and hold health insurance that covers 100% of medical costs. See the student visa guide. Students who live outside Andorra, for example across the border in Spain or France, do not need that permit to study.
