StudyPath lists 3 universities in Estonia and 46 courses between them, 12 of which are taught in English. 36 of those courses charge no tuition at all — a published fee of zero, not an estimate and not a scholarship. 2 of these universities publish their own accommodation prices. Every figure was read from the university's own published page and last checked on 2026-09-26.
Where the tuition-free degrees are
Ranked by how many degrees each university publishes at a fee of zero — not by reputation. Several of these are technical universities no league table mentions.
If you do pay, this is the range
Annual international tuition, converted to US dollars so the two ends compare. The published figure in its own currency is the authoritative one.
What it costs to live
Student housing published by the university itself or by the body that runs its halls, cheapest first. Shown in the currency and period each one publishes — not converted, because a converted rent is a worse number than the real one.
How Estonia compares with other countries
Ranked against every other country on StudyPath. Countries charge in different currencies, so these figures are converted to US dollars and are approximate; the published figure, in its own currency, is on each university's page.

Converted to US dollars at the site's exchange rates of 13 Sept 2026. A fee or rent published per term, month or week is scaled to a year, and housing is counted for twelve months of holding the room. The living-cost figure is what an immigration authority requires a student visa applicant to show, taken as a year; the UK's, for example, covers at most nine months, so this overstates it. See student finance for each country's exact wording.

Ranked universities first, then the rest by how many courses they publish. Unranked never means worse — it means QS has not measured it.
