TUITION FEE
Attention:
The Foundation Academy of Amsterdam is committed to offering tuition-free or low-cost education, particularly to individuals from developing countries. We strongly encourage applicants to explore opportunities at governmental universities in their home countries. However, if no such opportunities are available or you share our vision and mission and wish to contribute to our cause, we welcome your application to the Foundation Academy of Amsterdam.
FEE
• Certificate Program (6 months): 150 Euro + 25 Euro registration fee
• Diploma Program (1 year): 250 Euro + 50 Euro registration fee
• Academic Diploma (entire four years): 500 Euro + 50 Euro registration fee
• Advanced Academic Program (entire two years): 750 Euro + 50 Euro registration fee
​​
​Even though the fee is modest, some students are unable to pay it and therefore study for free, supported by sponsors and the foundation academy itself.
Important to know
Although the Foundation Academy of Amsterdam charges only a modest fee from our students, each student costs the academy approximately €2000 per year. This covers essential expenses such as logistics, building maintenance, and materials. Notably, this calculation does not account for the symbolic value of the time and expertise that our volunteer lecturers and staff generously invest in, sharing their knowledge and skills with our students without any financial compensation.
