Budget
Estimated monthly budget for a student
It is very difficult to assess the cost of university education. Some expenditures are required because they are directly linked to studies; others depend on the situation of each student, e.g. housing in Luxembourg, having to take one’s meals on location, etc.
According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the monthly resources required correspond to at least 80% of the guaranteed minimum income in Luxembourg. A student in Luxembourg will therefore need a budget €1000 per month to cover all of his or her needs.
