Living Expenses
Did you know that studying in Germany costs an average 700 € a month? This is the result of the latest survey by German Student Services (DSW). The individual figures vary considerably, though. About a quarter of the students manage on less than 600 € a month, while another quarter spend over 890 € a month. How high the cost of living turns out to be in practice will depend on your expectations and which institution and city you choose.
