A non-refundable application fee of 150 EUR is charged separately for every application, including a reapplication after a visa refusal, and is not part of the tuition.

How Óbuda compares

Against the other universities in Hungary on StudyPath, using each one's verified international fees and its own published housing prices.

Of the 9 other universities in Hungary we list with undergraduate fees in EUR, 5 charge more at their lowest, 3 charge less, 1 charges the same. Their lowest undergraduate fees run from €3,950 (UOD) to €10,000 (UVMB).

Accommodation

HUF 37,000–HUF 53,000per month

Shared room in one of Óbuda University’s own halls, at the self-financing rate that fee-paying students pay in 2026/27

  • Category I hall (Bánki Donát, Kiss Árpád)HUF 37,000
  • Category IV hall (Kandó Kálmán)HUF 53,000

None of the halls offers a single room. The cheaper figure covers Bánki Donát, Kiss Árpád, Geo and Corvin; the dearer one Kandó Kálmán and Hotel@BMF. Hungarian students on a state-funded place pay less, 20,000 to 33,000 Ft. Students on evening, correspondence and distance courses pay the self-financing rate whatever their funding.

Work during study

Hungary's National Directorate-General for Aliens Policing (Országos Idegenrendészeti Főigazgatóság, OIF) states directly that a third-country national holding a residence permit for the purpose of studies, a student mobility residence permit, or a student mobility certificate may work during their study period for a maximum of 30 hours a week, and outside their study period (e.g. holidays) full-time for up to 90 days in a year.

Post-study work visa

Residence permit for the purpose of seeking a job or starting a business . Up to 9 months
A holder of a residence permit for the purpose of studies who has successfully completed their studies, where the job or business they want to start in Hungary is suitable for the level of their studies, may apply for this residence permit — submitted in Hungary at least 15 days before the study permit expires. OIF states its validity is capped at 9 months and cannot be extended. During its validity, the holder is exempted from needing a separate work permit if they go on to hold an EU Blue Card or a residence permit for Guest self-employment.

Route to permanent residence

OIF's own factsheet states plainly that a holder of a study-purpose residence permit, student mobility residence permit, or student mobility certificate 'may not be granted a national residence card' (Hungary's main long-term/permanent-residence status for third-country nationals) directly — study years themselves do not count. The realistic route for a graduate runs through the post-study 'seeking a job or starting a business' permit into an employment-based status (e.g. National Card or EU Blue Card), from which the National Residence Card becomes reachable once its own conditions are met: a third-country national who holds a residence permit, interim permanent residence permit, or interim residence card, and who has resided in Hungary legally and without interruption for at least 3 years prior to applying, may be granted a national residence card (a separate, faster route also exists after 1 year for those living as a dependent family member with a Hungarian citizen or long-term resident).

Route to citizenship

Hungary's Ministry of Justice (via its human-rights information portal) describes naturalisation under Act LV of 1993 on Hungarian Citizenship. The general conditions for conventional naturalisation are proper accommodation and income in Hungary, a clear criminal record, no prejudice to public or national security, and passing an examination on the Hungarian constitution in the Hungarian language (with exemptions for, among others, incapacitated persons, anyone 65 or older, and anyone who graduated from a Hungarian-language educational institution). The applicant must already hold a document entitling them to permanent residence in Hungary and be registered at a Hungarian address. The required period of prior residence varies by category: a person with no entitlement to a preferential procedure — the category a typical international graduate with no other tie to Hungary would fall into — may apply after 8 years of residence; someone who was born in Hungary, settled/immigrated there, or received a registration document as a minor, or who is stateless, may apply after 5 years; and the spouse of a Hungarian citizen, the parent of a Hungarian-citizen minor child, a refugee, or an adult adopted by a Hungarian citizen as a minor may apply after 3 years. StudyPath found no statement on this page about dual nationality or a requirement to renounce an applicant's original nationality, so no claim is made on that point.

This entry chains cleanly end-to-end: study (with 30hrs/week or 90-day work rights) to a 9-month post-study job/business-seeking permit to an employment-based residence status to a National Residence Card after 3 further years to citizenship after 8 years overall for someone with no other qualifying tie to Hungary. citizenshipTerms records 8 years, the period for an applicant with no entitlement to a preferential procedure — the category a graduate with no other tie to Hungary falls into. Shorter periods (5 years for someone born in Hungary or stateless, 3 years for a spouse, parent of a Hungarian child, refugee or adoptee) are category routes. dualCitizenshipAllowed is null: this Ministry of Justice page says nothing about renunciation either way.
