Registrar’s Office & Student Services

There is no set fee for a semester or for the entire year. Payment is by semester according to the number of credits (ECTS) of the courses taken by the student.

      1 ECTS = Euro 60.00 Euros (55 + 5 for “academic resource fee”)
      
      - 1 course of 3 ECTS = 180 Euro (this includes the exam).
      - 1 course of 5 ECTS = 300 Euro (this includes the exam).
      - The semester tuition for a student taking 30 ECTS is 1800 Euro [30 x 60].
      
      In order to offer its students the necessary digital resources for their studies and, above all, for their future roles as teachers and/or researchers, the Institute has made a deal with Verbum (the Catholic ‘section’ of the Logos platform).  Based on this agreement, the student can receive a "package" containing critical editions of the biblical texts, indispensable dictionaries, the main extrabiblical texts (targumim, Qumran,...) and about 200 commentaries chosen by the PBI professors.  The value for the hardcopy/paper versions of these resources would total around 8000 Euros.  Thanks to the support of the Gregorian University Foundation, the PBI is able to offer this ‘package’ to each student, asking for a contribution of 5 Euros for each ECTS.

      N.B.: This contribution of 5 Euros also applies to ECTS received from courses taken at other institutions (Ex. Hebrew University or École Biblique) which are applied for credit to the SSL curriculum.

      - Payment must be made at the time of registration at the beginning of the semester, i.e., in October and February (see the Academic Calendar for the exact times in any given year).
      - The fee for an examination without credits (e.g., qualifying exam, modern language exam), is 55 Euro.
