What will it cost?
What can you afford?

Choose what you know. We calculate the missing piece, with a clear breakdown and a way to talk through the result.

Start with your question

The published examples fill in living costs for you. They are estimates, not quotes or visa requirements.

Use funds you can actually access. Do not rely on a job you have not secured.

Adjust extra costs and a safety buffer

Add travel, visa fees, insurance, semester fees, household bills, and setup costs not already included in your living estimate. Include refundable housing deposits if you need the cash upfront. Do not add a tuition deposit twice.

A planning range, not an approval check.

Tuition must cover the same period as the months you select. Currency labels do not convert amounts. No future earnings, unconfirmed scholarships, or visa funds assessment are included.

Where the living-cost examples come from Sources checked 19 September 2026

DAAD gives a Germany living-cost range of EUR 900–1,200 a month. City, accommodation, and personal needs can change that substantially.

UCL lists shared rent of GBP 650–1,300 a month, excluding household bills, and an essential-cost total of GBP 426 a month. We combine those into GBP 1,076–1,726. This is a London example, not a UK-wide average; household bills, discretionary spending, visa costs, and other omitted expenses must be added.
