Degrees in Greece

In Greece, bachelor’s or undergraduate degrees are primarily offered at public and private universities, as well as specialised higher education institutions known as Technological Educational Institutes (TEIs). These programs typically lead to the awarding of Bachelor of Science (BSc) and Bachelor of Arts (BA) degrees.

Greek is the main language of teaching, but there has been a growing availability of programs taught in English, catering to the increasing number of international students choosing to study in Greece.

How to Apply for a Degree in Greece

International students should apply directly to their chosen institution in Greece. Unlike some countries with a centralised application system, Greek universities handle their own admissions. Required documents for application generally include academic transcripts, a motivation letter, and a resume or CV.

Proficiency in English or Greek is essential for non-native speakers. Accepted proof of language proficiency includes exams like the IELTS or TOEFL for English, or equivalent Greek language exams. Academic requirements can vary but often include prerequisites such as a specific GPA, SAT scores, or knowledge in relevant subjects.

Undergraduate Tuition Fees for International Students

Tuition fees in Greece are quite reasonable compared to other parts of Europe. At public universities, EU/EEA students typically do not pay tuition fees for undergraduate programs, while non-EU/EEA students can expect to pay between €1,500 and €3,000 per year, depending on the university and program.

There are numerous scholarships and financial aid opportunities available from the Greek government, European Union, and various private and public organisations to help support international students financially.
