How much financial support can my parents provide for my masters abroad in UAE for a Master's?
It depends on your parents' income, savings, and financial commitments. For Indian middle-class families (typically earning ₹50,000 - ₹1,00,000/month), supporting a master's abroad can be challenging due to high costs.
Typical costs for a master's in the UAE (subject to change):
- Tuition: AED 30,000 - 120,000/year, depending on university and program
- Living expenses: AED 36,000 - 84,000/year
If your family is in the middle-class income range, they may cover part of the expenses, but you will likely need additional funding through scholarships, part-time work, or student loans. Discuss your family's financial situation with your LeapScholar counsellor for personalized guidance.
