The total cost for a two-year MS abroad - including tuition and living expenses - varies widely by country and university.

- USA: Typical total cost is $100,000 - $170,000 for two years. This includes annual tuition ($25,000 - $60,000) and living expenses ($12,000 - $30,000 per year). - Canada: Typical total cost is CAD 44,000 - 116,000 for two years.
