Financing Options

Frankfurt School offers various options for the payment of tuition fees. In addition to the Standard Payment (= A) and the Payment in Instalments (= B), Frankfurt School is pleased to announce a new Three-step Payment Model (= C) to ensure students do not need to worry about their finances in these uncertain times.

Frankfurt School thus created subsidised financing packages, such as the modified version of the Three-step Payment Model (= C/H) which includes the costs for Uninest Student Residences for the first year.  The rooms in the student accommodation "Urbanum" have a minimum size of 19 qm and are located in central Frankfurt.

More information on payment options

• The respectice total price doesn't include any additonal costs (RMV-Ticket, Student Council Fee)
• If the student is entitled to a reduction in tuition fees (e.g. through a scholarship or early bird discount) this reduction will be taken into account in an adjustment of the final instalment or even extended to the last monthly instalments where needed.
