2. Adjust your figures
Enter tuition and monthly living costs before reviewing a total. Enter 0 only when you have confirmed no cost. Other blank amounts count as zero; add every applicable cost.
Changing destination updates guidance, not your amounts. Changing currency does not convert amounts. Include a tuition deposit within tuition, not twice. Funding means money already confirmed.
A visa minimum is a separate check.
For the German study-visa route, the official portal lists €11,904 in a blocked account for 2026, or another accepted proof such as a scholarship or declaration of commitment. The visa for seeking a study place has a different requirement.
Official German study-visa requirements ↗Checked 20 September 2026. This is not a visa decision or a complete document list. Requirements depend on your route; reconfirm the amount and evidence for your appointment and intake. Do not add these funds again as a fee if they will pay the living costs already budgeted.
Compare your options.
Keep up to three budgets while you explore. Compare the same currency and period for a like-for-like view; amounts are never converted.
Adjust your figures, then choose “Keep for comparison” beside your estimate.
