  • The Diving Safety Management page lists EU/EEA students without a Maltese ID or residence permit at €3,938 a semester for online study only, so ask ITS about an on-campus place before applying.
  • Applications carry a non-refundable €25 registration fee for Maltese and EU nationals; the course pages show no 2027 closing date, so apply early.
