Can you counsel me on the minimum budget I should consider for studying abroad since I am focusing on 100% scholarships but want to know about minimum expenses in UAE?

Even with a 100% scholarship covering tuition, you’ll need to budget for living expenses, visa fees, health insurance, travel, and personal costs.

In the UAE, the minimum monthly living expenses for international students typically range from AED 3,000 to AED 7,000, depending on your lifestyle and accommodation choices.

Typical monthly expenses include:
- Accommodation: AED 1,500 - 3,500 (shared housing)
- Food and groceries: AED 600 - 1,200
- Transportation: AED 250 - 400
- Utilities and internet: AED 300 - 500
- Health insurance: AED 500 - 800
- Miscellaneous: AED 400 - 800

These figures are subject to change and do not include one-time costs like visa fees or initial travel.
