EU citizens can get a state-funded place (magyar állami ösztöndíj) – then you pay no tuition. These places are only available on programmes taught in Hungarian, and they are allocated through felvi.hu.
On fee-paying programmes, including all programmes in English, the university sets the fee – it varies a lot between universities and programmes. For example, medicine in English at Semmelweis University costs €9,340 per semester plus one-off fees. Check the amount for your programme on the university's website.
If you come from outside the EU, you will usually study on a fee-paying place – unless you win a Stipendium Hungaricum scholarship, which covers tuition for nationals of Hungary's partner countries (see: Scholarships).
