    International students: what the new decree changes regarding tuition fees at UGA
    Since 2019, non-EU students have been subject to fees that differ from those applied to students from the European Community and assimilated categories. The decree of 19 May 2026 amends the rules allowing universities to grant exemptions from tuition fees for international students. UGA will support this change with a transition year in 2026-2027, before implementing, from 2027-2028, a scheme geared towards supporting international students, inclusion and academic success.
