I want to know the budget for studying in my target countries, can you provide that in Australia?
Here’s a typical budget for studying in Australia:
- Tuition (Master’s): AUD 22,000 - 50,000/year (subject to change based on university and course)
- Living costs: AUD 24,505/year minimum required by the government; actual expenses usually range AUD 1,500 - 2,500/month depending on city and lifestyle
- Health insurance (OSHC): AUD 500 - 600/year (mandatory, subject to change)
- Student visa (Subclass 500): AUD 710 (subject to change)
- Application fees: Around AUD 133 per university (subject to change)
Total annual budget typically ranges AUD 38,000 - 70,000, depending on your choices and location.
