No. However, some students will be granted an exemption for the handling fee if they meet one of the following criteria:

• Current Erasmus School of Economics students who wish to switch programs but are required to submit a new application. 
• Students with a refugee status with support from the UAF. Please submit documents that show us that you are connected to the UAF upon submitting your application.  
• Students who have gone through the application process and had been admitted to one of our bachelor programmes, but decided to defer their application to the following academic year. In this case, students must go through the application process as they did before, but they are not required to pay the handling fee.
