Why Georgia?

Georgia (yes, the beautiful European country, not the U.S. state) has become one of the most attractive destinations for international students in recent years and it’s easy to see why.

Here’s what makes Georgia stand out:

  • ✅ High-quality education that’s internationally recognized

  • ✅ A peaceful, safe, and student-friendly environment

  • ✅ Courses taught in English

💼 Let’s Talk About the Costs Involved

We understand that budgeting for study abroad is one of the biggest concerns families have. So let’s break down what you can expect financially when applying for an undergraduate degree in Georgia:

📍 Application & Admission Fee – $600

This is a one-time payment made at the start of your application process. It covers document processing, university submissions, and administrative follow-up. Think of it as the key that opens the door to your academic journey.

📘 Tuition Fee – $5,500 to $7,000 per year

Your tuition fee will vary depending on the university and your course of study. For instance, programs in medicine or engineering may be on the higher end, while courses in business or social sciences may cost less.

The good news? Compared to other European destinations, Georgia offers one of the most affordable tuition structures, without compromising on educational standards.

🏠 Accommodation – $250 to $600 per month

Your living situation can be customized to your comfort and budget. Whether you prefer student hostels, shared apartments, or private flats, there are options to suit your needs.

You don’t need to worry—we’ll help you find safe and comfortable housing close to your university.

    This covers registration costs, university services, insurance coverage, and other institutional charges. It’s part of what ensures your stay in Georgia is smooth and secure.
