TU Braunschweig is a Lower Saxony public university — €0 tuition for all students, including non-EU. The semester contribution is €472.50 for WS 2026/27, confirmed at primary source on the TU Braunschweig Immatrikulationsamt notice of 15.06.2026 ("Der Semesterbeitrag für das Wintersemester 2026/27 steht fest! Er beträgt 472,50 €"), made up of the Studentenwerksbeitrag, the Studierendenschaftsbeitrag and the Verwaltungskostenbeitrag. This is up from €440.00 in WS 2025/26–SoSe 2026 — the rise tracks the Studierendenwerk OstNiedersachsen increase and the nationwide Deutschlandticket tariff recalculation of 1 July 2026 — and it now sits €19.34 above neighbouring LUH's €453.16. No application fee to TU Braunschweig, but a non-EU/EEA degree requires uni-assist. Refundable under conditions (e.g. leave of absence), up to two months after semester start.
Scholarships are listed per university: see TU Braunschweig scholarships.
