For an LLM, the estimated annual budget is:

- UK: Tuition fees range from £14,000 - £45,000/year. Living expenses are typically £1,200 - £1,800/month in London and £650 - £1,100/month outside London. Total yearly cost is about £27,000 - £65,000, with higher costs in London and at top universities.
- Germany: Public universities usually have minimal or no tuition fees (semester contribution €150 - €350), while private universities charge €5,000 - €20,000/year. Living expenses are about €850 - €1,200/month. Total yearly cost is roughly €11,000 - €25,000.

Germany is generally more affordable, especially at public universities. Your actual budget will depend on your university and city choices.
