How admission works

You apply online directly to each institution; Luxembourg has no national admission exam or portal. The University of Luxembourg requires a secondary school-leaving diploma (foreign diplomas, the IB and A-levels need an equivalence from the Luxembourg Ministry of Education) and proof of the required level in every teaching language of the programme; it selects on the application file, and some programmes such as law and medicine have limited places. For the 2027/28 intake applications open on 1 February 2027; in 2026 non-EU applicants without a Luxembourg residence permit had to apply by 24 March, while EU applicants had programme deadlines between late April and mid-July. The private institutions LUNEX and the Luxembourg School of Business admit students through their own tests or interviews.

Tuition fees in Luxembourg

At public universities an EU student typically pays €800 a year, and a student from outside the EU €800 a year. All amounts are per year in euros; fees charged per credit or per semester are converted to a full year (60 ECTS credits or two semesters).

Where the fee depends on family income, the typical figure is the full fee and the range starts at the lowest one.

Good to know about fees

• Lëtzebuerg: The University of Luxembourg charges no separate tuition for international students: every student pays a registration fee of €400 per semester in 2026/27, plus a €100 application fee that is deducted from the first semester. Non-EU students must also join the Luxembourg social security system for health insurance. The private institutions charge the same fee to EU and most non-EU students: LUNEX €9,000–10,788 a year depending on the programme, and the Luxembourg School of Business €12,500 a year (€14,300 for students who need a visa) for the January 2027 intake.
