“State-funded” is SORS's “budget” category: students on places the state finances, who pay no tuition. Everyone else is “self-financing” and pays the tuition the institution sets. Private institutions have no state-funded places. A graduate counted as “partly state-funded” financed part of their studies each way. The 2025 figures are SORS's preliminary results and may be revised. Student numbers are for the 2025/26 school year; graduates are those who completed their studies in the 2025 calendar year.

Faculties and programmes are from the Ministry of Education's register for 2025/26. The register does not record which university a faculty belongs to: public faculties are assigned by CollegeMatcher, and a private faculty is shown under a university only where its registered name says so. It has no language-of-instruction or ECTS field, so neither is shown; a programme's language appears only where its name states it.

What it costs

Tuition for self-financing students is set by each institution and is not published as open data — the Ministry of Education's open tuition feed holds only placeholders — so ask the faculty for the current amount. For first-year places at state institutions, the government sets each year how many are state-funded, and each faculty ranks its applicants for state-funded and self-financing places.
