Fee for participation

The registration fee for participation, including accommodation, local transportation, and all meals is 11.000 SEK (excl. VAT).

At this stage, the school do not have funds available for financial support. Therefore, in order to secure your participation you must be financially self-supported.

Note that the NoE P4L will support each of its students covering the fee partially following acceptance by the school and then approval by P4L (the P4L support will be in the form of a discount on the school fee).
