At TIAS, you pay a single program fee for the entire program. This gives you full transparency about your total investment from the start. In most cases, tuition, study materials and personal guidance are included. Any additional costs, such as international study trips, accommodation or optional modules, are clearly stated on the program page and in your study agreement.
Good to know: TIAS programs are exempt from VAT (CRKBO).

We understand that work, personal life or health can sometimes bring unexpected changes. Your Program Manager will work with you to find a suitable solution. In most cases, you can:

• Attend a class at a later date or join a different cohort.

• Move a paper deadline after consultation.

• Choose an alternative assessment format.

• Temporarily pause your studies and resume later.

  
  This flexibility ensures that your learning journey remains achievable without affecting the quality of your experience or your diploma.

Yes. At TIAS, you can pay your tuition fees in instalments.
This means you do not have to make the full investment at once but can spread the payments across several instalments that align with the duration of your program. It gives you clarity and financial flexibility, allowing you to start your studies with confidence.

The options are:

• Up to €7,500: 1 instalment (standard)

• €7,500 – €15,000: 2 instalments (on request)

• Above €15,000: 2 to 6 instalments (on request)

Instalments are spread across the duration of your program, which often naturally places payments in different financial years. If you want to coordinate timing for personal or business reasons, your Program Adviser can help you plan accordingly.

Yes. Several scholarships and grants are available depending on your situation.

• TIAS Scholarships: TIAS offers scholarships for qualified candidates in the Full-time Master in Management, Full-time MBA and Executive MBA. These scholarships support talent and ensure a diverse, inclusive student community.

• Private individuals: The option to deduct tuition fees in personal income tax was discontinued in 2022.

• Entrepreneurs/self-employed professionals: If you are taking the program to maintain or improve your professional knowledge for business purposes, tuition costs may be deductible.

• Employers: For organisations, tuition fees generally qualify as business expenses.
  Note: TIAS does not provide individual tax advice. For specific situations, please consult your accountant or the Dutch Tax and Customs Administration.

Yes, this is quite common. The study agreement clearly outlines the portion covered by you and by your employer. Even with shared financing, payment in instalments remains possible. This makes the investment manageable without affecting your program start.
