Malaysia is generally much more affordable for international students compared to most European countries.

- Tuition fees in Malaysia typically range from MYR 10,000 - 40,000/year (about ₹1.6 - 6.4 lakh).
- Living expenses in Malaysia are around MYR 2,000 - 3,500/month (about ₹35,000 - 59,000).
- Total annual cost in Malaysia: approximately ₹5.6 - 19 lakh.

In Europe, costs vary:
- Germany: Lower tuition (about ₹26,000 - 44,000/semester), but total annual costs are typically ₹10.5 - 13.5 lakh.
- UK: Tuition is much higher (about ₹10 - 38 lakh/year), with total annual costs ranging from ₹22 - 60 lakh.

Malaysia is a more budget-friendly option for international education.
