What a year in TRNC actually costs
Pick a university, a program, and your living preferences. Tuition is exact from the university's published rate. Living costs are working estimates with disclosed assumptions — not made-up specifics.
Most TRNC universities apply a standard international scholarship automatically. Uncheck to see the no-scholarship full price.

How we estimate living costs
Tuition values come from each university's published rate (PDF, fee table, or official calculator) and are linked to their source on the relevant university profile.
Living-cost ranges are baseline TRNC student bands collected from public housing pages and student-forum reports, adjusted by each city's cost-of-living index (Nicosia 1.0, Famagusta 0.9, Kyrenia 1.05, Güzelyurt 0.85). For universities whose tuition is published in EUR (NEU, CIU, GAU), the USD baselines are converted using a static rate of 1 USD ≈ 0.92 EUR (May 2026). For USD-published unis (EMU, METU NCC), no conversion is applied. Numbers are rounded to the nearest 50 to make the estimate nature visible.
These ranges are working estimates, not authoritative figures. Verify with the university's housing office and your own bank's exchange rate before relying on the total. If a range feels off in either direction, email [email protected]and we'll re-check.
