University of Tartu Tuition Fee Reductions

About this scholarship

University of Tartu Tuition Fee Reductions are programme-level tuition reductions for selected English-taught degree programmes from the 2026-2027 academic year. The official University of Tartu cost of tuition page states that, starting from 2026-2027, the university will no longer offer tuition waivers to newly admitted students from countries outside the EU/EEA, but some study programmes will introduce tuition fee reductions. These reductions may be 25 percent, 50 percent, or 100 percent for one semester at a time. The award is recorded as varies because the reduction percentage and eligibility basis differ by programme, and the reduction is not a living-cost scholarship. For each programme offering reductions, the university states that it will specify whether the first-semester reduction is awarded based on the applicant's admission score or whether later reductions depend on academic performance at the University of Tartu. Students should review the admission information for the specific programme before assuming any reduction is available.
