Regarding the average cost of living, it varies from student to student. However, it is recommended to budget approximately $600 to $1000 US per month. By having roommates, conserving utilities, cooking at home, and budgeting daily expenses, students can lower these costs. Transportation expenses will differ based on individual commuting methods. Please remember that these amounts are merely averages, as every student has unique needs and circumstances.
