PAYMENT METHODS

At EADE we offer different payment methods so that each student or family can organise the investment in their education in the most convenient way possible.

The aim is to facilitate access to our university programmes and enable clear financial planning from the very start of the admissions process.

A) Full payment with early payment discount

Students who make full payment before the start of the course may benefit from a 5% early payment discount on the corresponding amount.

This option is designed for those who wish to settle their academic investment from the outset and benefit from a direct reduction in the total programme cost. It is a convenient alternative for families and students who prefer to simplify the financial management of the course and avoid periodic payments throughout the academic year.

B) Direct debit payment in 7 monthly instalments.

For those who prefer to spread the course fee more comfortably, EADE offers the option of paying by direct debit in 7 monthly instalments.

This option helps better organise the family economy and spread the educational investment throughout the course, without having to pay the full amount in a single payment. It is a simple, practical, and planned formula for accessing university education with greater flexibility.

C) Bank financing in 10 interest-free monthly instalments

EADE also offers the option of bank financing in 10 interest-free monthly instalments through partner banks.

This option is aimed at students and families who wish to have a longer payment term, facilitating access to the programme and allowing for better financial organisation. The specific financing conditions will be communicated during the admissions or enrolment process, so you can assess the option with all the necessary information.

SCHOLARSHIPS AND FINANCIAL AID

In addition to the payment methods, EADE offers information and guidance on various scholarships, aid, and discounts that can facilitate access to university education.

Official scholarships

If you are entitled to a Ministry of Education scholarship or one from any other public or private institution, you must apply for it directly through the official website of the relevant body.

EADE will provide you with the academic documentation you need for its processing, provided that the programme you intend to study meets the requirements established by the granting body. Our team can advise you on the documentation you may need during the process. These scholarships are only applicable to the official Design degrees in Graphic Design, Interior Design, Product Design, and Fashion Design.

Alumni discount

EADE alumni can benefit from a 10% discount when enrolling in another programme at the centre.

This support is designed for those who wish to continue growing professionally, expand their training, or specialise in a new area within EADE. It is a way of recognising the trust of those who have already been part of our educational community.

Special conditions for elite athletes

At EADE we value the effort, discipline and resilience of elite athletes.

Therefore, students who can demonstrate an outstanding sporting track record may enquire about the possibility of accessing special conditions during their admissions process, aimed at facilitating compatibility between their university education and their sporting commitments.

This assessment will be carried out on a personalised basis, according to the requirements established by EADE and the documentation provided by the candidate.

The Admissions team will inform you of the relevant conditions, requirements and application procedure.

Group discounts

EADE offers special discounts for certain groups, partner organisations or specific agreements.

These supports help facilitate access to university education for students from institutions, companies, or groups with which EADE has collaboration agreements. Consult our admissions team to see if you can benefit from any of these special conditions.

Sibling discount

When two siblings study at EADE, a 10% discount may be applied to each of them, facilitating access to university education for several members of the same family.

This support is designed to help families who trust EADE with the education of more than one student.

Training credit bonus for working professionals

For working professionals, certain programmes may be eligible for funding through the training credits that the State Foundation for Employment Training makes available to companies.

This funding allows companies to support their employees' training through Social Security contribution reductions, provided the established requirements are met. The management of training credits will be carried out through a specialised partner company.

We help you choose the best option

Every student and every family have different circumstances. That is why, at EADE, we support you throughout the process so you can resolve your queries, explore the available options, and plan your enrolment with greater peace of mind.
