If the exchange rate moves. Today 1 EUR = 1.12 USD (rate of 8 November 2026). A 10% move either way changes this first year by about USD 1,240, and a whole three to four-year degree by roughly USD 3,720 to USD 4,970. Plan with a margin, and pay large sums when the rate suits you.

Worth knowing. Los graduados solo tienen cuatro meses para quedarse, con una posible extensión de nueve meses para graduados de maestría y doctorado.
