EDUCATION: AN ITALIAN EASTER EGG

The artistic beauty and delicious food of Italy are its primary profile to the world. However, education is an Easter egg that you nearly avoided while exploring this beautiful country of Europe. The University of Bologna is among the oldest universities around the globe and is still operating successfully in Italy.

The university possesses the pride of originating the present education system. Bologna is one of the most welcoming cities for foreign students. If you have started considering Italy as a prior option for higher studies, then the other aspects which are crawling through your mind have been factually elaborated further.

AFFORDABILITY

  • Cost is the first thing that strikes our mind while thinking of higher education abroad. On average, the tuition fees can be as low as 800 euros and may extend to 4000 euros per year at a maximum which is quite an affordable slab for all. Hence the tuition fee can be addressed as one of the lowest throughout Europe. 

  • Cost of living is another major factor towards Italy as a perfect choice opts for higher studies. Accommodation, commuting, and food are the three prerequisites for a student. These can be easily found between 800 to 1400 euros per year which may also include a little bit of traveling which is irresistible in this beautiful country.

  •  Bank statement is a major concern as several country visas require a hefty amount in the account which might be very difficult to accumulate. On the contrary, an Italian student visa requires a comparatively low (approx 47000 euros) bank statement which is a significant factor in choosing Italy for higher studies.
