Insurance for self-funded GEMMA, HIPS and Mundus MAPP students:
ÖGK (+ Expat & Co for students from visa-required countries)
Non-scholarship recipient HIPS, Mundus MAPP and GEMMA students receive the equivalent of the ÖGK student self-insurance fee (EUR 66.79/month in 2023) for their period at CEU in their first year and are advised to register with ÖGK (Austrian public health insurance) upon arrival. They may also choose to buy private health insurance (e.g. from Expat & Co) instead of registering with ÖGK - in this case no additional funding or assistance will be provided from CEU for this purpose.
