Tuition fee
**NEW** Sibling discount:
Siblings (brothers/sisters) receive a 300 euro discount every semester in which both—or more—of them have an active student status.
In the event that such students pay 50% of the full amount of their tuition fees, this discount is reduced to 150 euros per semester.
If one of the siblings involved has a passive student status in a semester, the discount is suspended for the duration of the passive student status.
In case one sibling's student status is terminated, the discount will no longer apply to the other sibling(s).
**************************************************************************************************

Payment:
Tuition fees can only be paid via money transfer. Both international and intranational money transfers can take a lot of time to go through.
• To make sure that your fees arrive in time, pay 3 to 4 weeks prior to the arrival deadline.
• Banks usually take commission for money transfers, and oftentimes there are more than two banks involved in such transactions, so be sure to let the bank know when you submit the transaction request that you wish for the exact amount to reach the university’s account, and note that you have to pay all surcharges.
• For easy identification of your payment, please indicate your full legal name, your program (medicine), your year (1st, 2nd, 3rd etc.), neptun code, and the semester you are paying your fees for (e.g., 2025/2026-1) when you (or your guardian) transfer your tuition fees.

Latest news
The University of Szeged and MSD have established a joint Pharmaceutical Industry Partnership Department, marking a new chapter in their collaboration. This initiative builds on a long-standing partnership – further strengthened in 2023 through clinical trial cooperation – and seeks to foster innovation in research, education, and pharmaceutical development. The agreement was officially signed in Szeged by Prof. Dr. László Rovó, Rector of the University of Szeged; Prof. Dr. Ildikó Csóka, Director-General for Strategic Planning; Prof. Dr. Zsolt Szakonyi, Dean of the Faculty of Pharmacy; Sean R. Smith, Managing Director of MSD Pharma Hungary Kft.; and Dr. Szabolcs Barótfi, Director of Clinical Research at MSD Hungary.
On May 12, the University of Szeged held an official ceremony to inaugurate its new research unit: the Host–Pathogen Interaction Center. Located within the Institute of Biology, the Center features Hungary’s only in vivo experimental station of its kind, alongside five newly renovated laboratories. This state-of-the-art facility is designed to support the development of antimicrobial therapies, with a particular focus on antifungal treatments – addressing a pressing yet often overlooked public health concern. The project was made possible through both professional and financial support from Katalin Karikó, an SZTE alumna and recipient of the 2023 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.
The origins of the University of Szeged date back to May 12, 1581, when István Báthory established the Jesuit College in Cluj-Napoca – an institution recognized as SZTE's legal predecessor. Exactly 444 years later, the University marked this anniversary with a symbolic “birthday gift”: the signing of two strategic partnership agreements. Supported by two of South America’s leading scientific and healthcare institutions, these partnerships are set to position SZTE among the global research elite in emerging and internationally significant fields of healthcare research and education.
