Costs and financing

Tuition fees

As a non-profit making institute, the Zollverein School relies on income from tuition fees to organise courses.

The total fees for the 20-month MBA executive course are EUR 22,000.
This fee covers participation in classes, the relevant study materials, and lunch.

Nevertheless, we would like to encourage all students with the relevant qualifications to apply for the course, regardless of their personal financial situation. The decision as to whether a candidate is accepted onto the MBA course is taken solely on the basis of the candidate's suitability for the course.

Financing tuition fees

The Zollverein School will make every effort to find funding opportunities for students who indicate in their application that they would require financial support to pay the course tuition fees. Funding opportunities include scholarships (e.g. sponsorship from companies) or work at the Zollverein School.

The Zollverein School also awards internal scholarships to outstanding applicants. Every applicant is entitled to apply for this internal scholarship. However, given the limited number of scholarships available, candidates are advised to apply at the earliest possible date.
