What will a European MiM really cost you?

Pick a school — tuition and length fill in from our data. Add your living and one-off costs to see the real total. Free, no email.

Typical European student costs run roughly the equivalent of €800–€1,500/month — see the city-by-city guide.

Most private schools offer merit awards — see the scholarships hub.

Estimated total cost of attendance

Tuition is only ever half the bill. The sticker price of a European Master in Management runs from effectively free at public universities to about €58,000 at the top private names — but living costs over a one- to two-year programme typically add another €15,000–€35,000, and one-off costs (flights, a visa, health cover) pile on top. This calculator turns the verified tuition on each programme profile into a realistic total, so you can budget honestly and compare schools like-for-like. For the full method — and the levers that genuinely bring the number down — read how much a MiM in Europe really costs.

About the cost calculator

How does the MiM cost calculator work?
Choose a school and the tool prefills that programme's published tuition and its length from our data — the same figures shown on its profile, each sourced to the school's own page. You then add your own estimates for living costs per month, one-off costs (flights, visa, health cover, a laptop) and any scholarship or aid you expect, and it returns a total cost of attendance. Tuition is the school's real number; everything else is clearly your estimate, so nothing is invented.
Is the calculator free, and does it need my email?
Yes, completely free, and no email is required — the calculator runs entirely in your browser and nothing you type is sent anywhere or stored. It is a planning aid, not a quote.
Why is everything shown in one currency?
Each school publishes its tuition in its own currency — euros for most, pounds for UK schools, francs for Swiss ones, and so on — so the calculator does the whole estimate in that school's currency and never converts. That keeps the number honest: a euro-to-pound exchange rate would add a moving figure we'd have to guess. Enter your living and one-off costs in the same currency shown, and compare schools one at a time.
Does this include the salary I give up while studying?
No. This calculator covers the money that leaves your pocket — tuition, living and one-off costs, less any scholarship. The salary you forgo while you study (the opportunity cost) is usually the single largest cost of a MiM, and it belongs in a return-on-investment calculation, not a cost-of-attendance one. Our guide on how to calculate MiM ROI walks through that side.
How accurate is the total?
The tuition figure is as accurate as the school's own published fee on the day we last verified it (check the school's profile for the source and date). The total is only as good as your living-cost and one-off estimates, which vary a lot by city and lifestyle — treat the result as a realistic planning range, not a precise bill, and confirm tuition on the school's admissions page before you commit.
