Country Overview

The Baltic System Where a European Degree Costs Less Than You'd Expect.

Latvian public universities charge among the lowest tuition fees in the EU — most programmes range from €1,500 to €6,000 per year, with medicine and specialised MBAs priced higher. Degrees are fully recognized across the EU under the Bologna system, and the Latvian State Scholarship supports qualifying students from year two onward.
