Students using the brain capital model do not have to struggle with the financing of their studies. There are neither tuition fees nor interests due during the study period.

The payments after graduation always correspond to the individual solvency thus making the financial burden reasonable. Therefore, WHU students have the opportunity of a certain and risk-free study financing.

Upon enrollment it is difficult to estimate the individual future income after graduation. Thus, many students consider the fixed payment obligations of a bank loan as too risky. Thanks to the brain capital model, students can exclude the risk of being financially burdened through a fixed amount of tuition fees paid or a necessary loan redemption. In the brain capital model the tuition fee payments would be lower in this case or even be omitted entirely.

In the opposite case, if the income is higher than expected, the alumni assure a continuation of the model through their contributions. Moreover, they are able to give something back thanks to their studies at WHU.
