Tuition

​

The tuition fees at VMI represent a balanced price/performance ratio, can be financed by study grants and scholarships if necessary, do not increase during the entire duration of studies, and are the same for all students, regardless of their country of origin, so that usually only the payment modalities differ from each other.

Study grants and scholarships

​

Students have the possibility, in accordance with the respective legal provisions, to apply to the relevant authorities (e.g. Stipendienstelle) for state study support or scholarships.

There are various options for students for study grants, scholarships and reductions, which may differ depending on the nationality. Applications for scholarships, for example, can be submitted to the Austrian scholarship office, the German BAföG or the responsible offices in the respective home countries.

Semesters abroad at international partner colleges and universities or internships abroad at international companies and organizations that take place in the course of Erasmus+ are also financially supported by grants from the European Commission. In addition, there are other financial support options for students, such as receiving family allowance, subsidies from AMS or WAFF, as well as discounts for public transportation or various cultural institutions.
