Spain

Country: Spain

Public universities charge per ECTS credit – on average €11.95–19.29 in 2024/25, depending on the region, and EU citizens pay the same as Spaniards; many charge non-EU students without Spanish residence more. Spain has 91 universities, 50 of them public, and over 800 programmes taught fully or partly in English.

As an international student, you can look for support from several sources:

Erasmus+ – a semester or year in Spain as part of an exchange with your home university,
national and regional grants – awarded by the ministry and the autonomous communities; check the conditions (e.g. income, grades, residence) in each call,
university scholarships – merit-based or need-based; each university has its own rules,
Erasmus Mundus – joint master's programmes run by several European universities, with a scholarship for the whole programme.

Start with the international office of your chosen university and the SEPIE website.
