The estimated monthly cost of living (nutrition, transportation, etc.) of a university student can vary between 1200 TL and 2000 TL on average. The cost of accommodation varies according to the region and accommodation type. Academic expenses can be approximately 100 TL per month, except for the special needs required by the program (book, photocopy, etc.).
