Can you give me some idea about the budget required for studying in Ireland or Germany for a Master's?

Germany is generally more affordable than Ireland for a Master's degree.

- Ireland: Typical annual budget is €26,800 - €54,000 (includes tuition of €10,000 - €30,000 and living expenses of €16,800 - €24,000). Health insurance is €500 - €1,200/year (subject to change).
- Germany: At public universities, annual costs are usually €14,400 - €18,000 (living expenses around €11,200, semester contribution €200 - €800, and possible tuition of €3,000 - €6,000 for non-EU students in some states). Health insurance is about €110/month (subject to change).

Both countries require health insurance and offer scholarships and part-time work options for international students. Actual costs vary by city and university. For a detailed estimate based on your target program, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
