Overview
The international student who is arranging his/her studies on his/her own initiative is called a non-degree FREE MOVER and in this case he/she has to pay tuition fee. Tuition fee is calculated according to number of ECTS credits selected for studies at MRU by the Free- mover. The charge for one ECTS credit depends on the cycle of studies (Bachelor or Master), the field of studies and it is different for EU citizens and non-EU citizens. The tuition fee for 1 ECTS credit for EU citizens is from 22 Eur to 38 Eur; for non- EU citizens is from 36 Eur to 53 Eur. The required number of credits per semester for a free mover is between 25 to 30 ECTS credits.

Financial support:
- MRU has established a special fund to support MRU Ukrainian degree-seeking students. Only the students who are physically present and registered as Ukrainians fleeing from the war are eligible for financial support. All the students that need financial support after arrival are advised to apply for it here at MRU.
- Until the end of spring semester (June 30) accommodation is provided to fleeing Ukrainians (who transfer or arrive as mobility students) free of charge at MRU Student house. Automatically, the accommodation fee for the Ukrainian MRU degree or mobility student will be covered from the special fund supporting Ukrainian students.
- Our government is considering establishing a special funding for Ukrainians to study in Lithuania, who fled Ukraine due to the war.
