These questions are common concerns that prospective students often have. While the tuition fees associated with medical school may initially seem daunting, it's important to recognize that investing in your medical education at VUB is a powerful step towards a promising future. We firmly believe in supporting our students throughout their journey, which is why we offer a range of scholarships and financial aid options to eligible individuals. These opportunities are designed to bridge the gap between the cost of attendance and your family's financial capacity. By combining various funding sources such as family contributions, federal student loans, scholarships, and additional loans, we ensure that financial considerations do not hinder your path to a fulfilling and successful career in medicine. At VUB, we are committed to helping you overcome any financial barriers so that you can focus on your education and future achievements.
