After your admission (bachelor)

Payment of the fees

All Dutch students must indicate their method of payment via Studielink.

Starting from 1 May, a new task will appear in your ‘To Do’ list in Studielink. Here, you can set up your digital authorization and choose whether you want to pay your tuition fee in one payment or in five instalments.

The payment deadline is 15 August. However, we strongly recommend that you confirm your payment as early as possible. Once you have confirmed your digital authorization, your payment obligation is considered fulfilled.

As soon as you meet all other enrolment requirements, you will be officially enrolled and your WUR account will become available (from 1 July).

By confirming your digital authorization, you give Wageningen University & Research (WUR) permission to collect the tuition fees from your bank account. This means you have met your payment obligation immediately, even though the actual amount will not be debited until 27 September. Please make sure to complete this step no later than 15 August.

If you choose to pay in instalments, an administration fee of €24 will be charged. This fee will be deducted together with the first instalment.

If you withdraw your enrolment (or request for enrolment) before 1 September, your digital authorization will automatically be cancelled.

Please contact ssc@wur.nl if you wish to submit a Proof of Payment of Tuition Fees (BBC) from another Dutch university or Dutch University of Applied Sciences.
