Top 5 universities
Many of the top public universities are subsidised by the government, but non-EU students have to pay a higher differentiated fee. The fee for arts and humanities is lesser than that for medicine, engineering and MBA. The grandes ecoles and private universities charge a much higher fee. Besides, there are other enrolment, administration and student campus contribution charges, which further raise the total cost.
