Example: I am in the 2nd year and I have 102 ECTS credits (so I cannot have clear enrolment in 3rd year). I calculate missing credits for winter semester and it is 18 ECTS (e.g. missing credits for mathematics and basics of economics) which means that I can only add 12 ECTS from the 5th semester because my total workload must be 30 ECTS. The same calculation applies to enrolment in the summer semester.

33 ECTS can be added due to chosen elective courses and its credits (some elective courses carry 6, and some 5 or 4 ECTS).

Example 2: Else – From 60 subtract the number of credits earned. Multiply the difference by 120 kn and that is the amount of tuition.
(I achieved 45 ECTS, 60-45 = 15, 15x120 = 1800 kn, payment is 1800 kn tuition)
Example 3: I achieved 55-60 ECTS - I do not pay tuition

Part-time students pay HRK 7,200 regardless of the points earned.
