### Accommodation

Visa authorities accept a university letter covering accommodation and meals, or prepaid accommodation (reduces funds required). UC3M residence halls 2026/27: Getafe single room EUR 745/month accommodation only, EUR 1,105 with full board; Leganes single EUR 1,075 with full board (VAT not included).

When planning the total budget, separate one-off and monthly items. [Budget planning guide](https://armaneducation.com/en/guides/budget-planning)

## What to watch for in Costs

- Calculate tuition, living costs and insurance/visa costs separately.
- Verify fees on the university's own page; programmes can differ greatly.
- Add a margin each year for currency and exchange-rate risk.
- Research scholarship and discount options before applying.
