The participation fee consists of a one-off non-refundable program fee and the course fee. The program fee amounting to 160,- Euros is levied at a flat-rate and covers the administrative tasks associated with the enrollment process and course management. The regular program fee for online courses amounts to 60,- Euros. Course fees vary from course to course (the applicable course fees are available on each course's website).

The course fee includes:

• Academic lessons (subject courses/ language courses/ online courses)
• Class-related excursions / virtual tours
• Cultural program: The cultural program includes additional activities outside the classroom. We offer visits to political institutions, historical sights, museums, guest speakers, and events typical for Berlin. Although the cultural program is not mandatory, it is highly recommended and we encourage you to take part in this unique possibility to learn more about the German capital, its history and culture, and your fellow students.
