Intervention for payment of increased duties

In addition to the €835 registration fee, foreign students from countries outside the European Union or those assimilated to them must pay higher fees. Please note that students from the least developed countries on the United Nations list are not subject to these fees. The Commission des étudiants étrangers may grant, according to criteria it has established, a total or partial financial intervention for the payment of these increased fees.

Information on this intervention for the 2025-2026 academic year will be communicated on September 25, 2025 at the earliest.

Financial assistance for the purchase of a computer

This intervention covers, for the student who meets the conditions, part of the costs related to the purchase of a computer (new or reconditioned).

Contribution to education and living expenses (excluding higher fees)

To obtain a residence permit to study in Belgium, all foreign students must provide proof of their financial autonomy (e.g. taken in charge by a guarantor, bank guarantee deposit).

However, if financial difficulties arise, the student can contact the Cellule sociale des étudiants:

  • either by e-mail: sse@unamur.be
  • or by telephone on 081/72 50 85
  • or at a permanence or appointment

to report his or her situation and obtain, if he or she meets the access conditions the application form for financial assistance.

Specific "exam" allowance

The Cellule sociale can grant students who work regularly to cover all or part of their study costs a specific "exams" allowance to enable them to devote more time to their exam session.

Info for the 2025-2026 academic year will be available from November 2025.
