Here’s an overview of the estimated annual budget (tuition + living expenses) for a Master's in Germany, Netherlands, Sweden, Ireland, and France for September 2026 intake:

- Germany: Most public universities have no tuition for international students; some states charge €1,500 - €3,000/semester. Living expenses: €900 - €1,200/month.
- Netherlands: Tuition: €11,000 - €20,000/year. Living expenses: €1,000 - €1,400/month.
- Sweden: Tuition: €7,300 - €18,000/year. Living expenses: €800 - €1,200/month.
- Ireland: Tuition: €12,000 - €30,000/year. Living expenses: €1,000 - €1,500/month.
- France: Tuition at public universities: €3,941/year. Living expenses: €700 - €1,400/month.

These figures are typical for non-EU students and are subject to change. Health insurance, visa fees, and other personal costs are additional. For a tailored budget or university-specific details, please connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
