Costs hotel school Maastricht

Following our bachelor study programme requires an investment. On this page, you can read about the exact costs which you have to take into account.

Good to know: the bachelor study programme at the Hotel Management School Maastricht is a government-funded study programme. This means that the costs are considerably lower than those for programmes at well-known private hotel management schools.

In addition to the tuition fees, there are other costs. Like the one-time purchase of a Tenue de Ville (school uniform), kitchen uniform, knife set, the rent of your campus room in the first year and of course the study books.
