Can I opt for countries other than the UK if there are colleges within my budget in Ireland/Germany for a Master's?
Yes, you can consider countries beyond the UK if you find colleges that fit your budget.
Ireland offers several universities with tuition and living costs typically around ₹12 - 15 lakh/year. Options like Atlantic Technological University, South East Technological University, and Technological University Dublin provide quality master's programs at relatively affordable fees.
France has very low tuition fees at public universities, though living costs depend on the city. Germany is also a strong choice, with many public universities charging minimal or no tuition fees.
These countries often offer post-study work opportunities (PSW). If you want help identifying universities that fit your budget and profile, your LeapScholar counsellor can guide you.
