Students at the University of Iceland pay an annual registration fee. International applicants from countries outside the EEA/EFTA (except the Faroe Islands and Greenland) also pay a handling and processing fee. 

The handling and processing fee is paid when you hand in your application in the application portal. If your application is approved, the UI registration fee must be paid to confirm your enrollment.

Please note: Depending on forthcoming decisions by the authorities, applicants from outside the EEA/EFTA and Switzerland who begin their studies in 2026 or later, may be required to pay tuition fees. No decision has been made on the tuition fee amount and the cost may vary depending on study programmes.
