Voluntary Contributions

Voluntary contributions must be renewed every time you enrol for a semester. However, you may add entries, for example if you decide to become a VSETH member after you have already enrolled. You cannot retract a chosen contribution for a semester that you have already enrolled in.

Foundation Solidarity Fund for Foreign Students

With your contribution you will make it possible for students from abroad to pursue their studies. Thanks to contributions by ETH and University of Zurich students and professors, the Foundation supports foreign students who are in financial difficulty.
