1️⃣ Budget Wisely: Create a detailed plan encompassing tuition fees and living
expenses.
Don’t just look at the tuition fees! In Ireland, for instance, accommodation costs can
surpass tuition fees due to the ongoing housing crisis.
2️⃣ Choose Affordable Destinations: Consider countries like Germany, Norway,
Finland, or
Austria for quality education at a fraction of the cost. I've seen friends thrive in
these countries without breaking the bank.
3️⃣ Scholarships and Grants: Explore scholarships and grants offered by
universities and
governments. Not just financial need based, but there are many merit based scholarships
provided by the top universities too.
4️⃣ Part-Time Work: I know people who funded their entire living expenses by
working
part-time. It not only helps financially but also boosts confidence through diverse
experiences.
5️⃣ Accommodation and Meal Prep: Save on housing with on-campus dorms or shared
accommodations. Food costs can add up; consider meal prep or affordable
subscription-based meal services.
6️⃣ Plan Ahead: Apply for visas, accommodations, and scholarships well in
advance to
secure better deals. Booking student accommodation by February can save you at least
30%.
Studying abroad can be expensive but by following these tips, you can make it
substantially easy.
