whole.
**Monthly living cost (country-level)**
No official monthly living-cost figure was found. Published official components: university residence 15 USD per month; university catering listed as '1.20 DZD' per meal (as printed on the fee PDF; the unit looks like a typo and was not verified); transport at the same rate as Algerian students; urban rent for a 3-room apartment (about 65 m2) 112-450 USD per month depending on the city (reference only). The 2026 press article cites about 180 USD per year for accommodation, which is inconsistent with 15 USD/month and is not used.Source
**Accommodation (country-level)**
Student housing is run by the National Office for University Services (ONOU): 66 directorates and 466 residences housing over 400,000 students including international students. International open-enrolment students: 15 USD per month in university residences (fee PDF). Catering, shuttle transport (MyBus app) and on-campus health services exist. The Turkish Embassy notes embassies cannot arrange dormitories or rental contracts.Source
