Summary: University level data are used to determine whether different types of fees affect university enrolment of first-year students differently at public universities in Germany. We find a significantly negative effect of the recently introduced tuition fees on enrolment. In contrast, the effect of administrative fees is insignificant. This is striking as both types of fees serve similar purposes.
