Study abroad planning

Study Abroad Cost Planner

Build your full-course budget from tuition, living costs and one-time expenses, then subtract your scholarships. Choose a country and enter figures from your own offer and budget.

How the planner works

  1. Course and tuition

    Enter the course length in months and the tuition for a 12-month year. We spread the tuition across your course length.

  2. Living and one-time costs

    Monthly living costs are multiplied by your months. Flights, visa, insurance and setup are added once.

  3. Buffer, then scholarships

    The buffer is added to the subtotal first. Your scholarships come off the total at the end.

An example

A 12-month course with tuition of ₹20,00,000 a year, living costs of ₹1,20,000 a month and ₹3,00,000 in one-time costs.

A 10% buffer is added, then a ₹2,00,000 scholarship comes off.

₹39,14,000 to arrange

₹37,40,000 subtotal + ₹3,74,000 buffer = ₹41,14,000 total, less ₹2,00,000 in scholarships.

Common questions

Why is tuition spread across the months?

It's a budgeting assumption that lets courses of any length compare fairly. Your university may invoice fees on a different schedule, so check your offer letter.

What should living costs include?

Rent, food, local transport and regular bills. Use your city's figures if you have them; the example figures are only a starting point.

Why add a buffer?

Deposits, exchange rates and one-off costs often run over. The buffer is added before scholarships, so scholarships don't shrink it.

Why do you ask for my contact details?

We ask for your name, email address and phone number before showing your estimate. Admissify uses your details and tool result to respond to your enquiry.
