Slovenia

Country: Slovenia

No tuition for EU citizens on full-time, publicly funded programmes, while non-EU/EEA students usually pay €2,000–11,000 a year for a bachelor's and €2,000–15,000 for a master's. The European Commission puts living costs at €400–800 a month, and subsidised student meals cost €0–4.37. See how to apply through the eVŠ portal, where to look for a room and how student work is organised.

In Slovenia, students work through the student work system (študentsko delo): you get jobs through a student employment agency (študentski servis) with a referral form (napotnica). To register you need an ID document, a Slovenian bank account, a Slovenian tax number and a certificate of enrolment.

15.5% in contributions for pension and disability insurance is deducted from every payment. For international students, agencies also deduct 22.5% as advance income tax – you can get part of it back if your country has a double taxation agreement with Slovenia.

Students from outside the EU/EEA with a temporary residence permit for study can also do student work through a student employment agency, or take a regular job alongside their studies – for regular employment, the employer needs an information sheet from the Employment Service of Slovenia. The official sources do not state a weekly hour limit.
