1. Iceland
In universities in Iceland, Icelandic may be the main teaching language, but affordable English teaching courses can also be provided, although most courses are offered at the postgraduate level. Four public universities in Iceland do not charge tuition fees, which means that you only need to pay a registration fee of 75,000 Icelandic krona (about 700 US dollars). If you are willing to enroll in the spring semester, the registration fee for the University of Iceland will be reduced to 55,000 Icelandic krona (about 500 US dollars). Non-EU/EEA students will also be charged an application fee of about 8,000 Icelandic krona (about 70 US dollars).
Unfortunately, Iceland is a country with a high cost of living-the University of Iceland advises students to prepare a monthly budget of at least 1 19300 Icelandic krona (about 1 100 USD). This means that your annual living expenses need at least $65,438+03,200. Another regret is that in recent years, there is no Icelandic University in the QS World University Rankings.
2. Malaysia
If you want to learn English in a warmer place, Malaysia may be the right choice for you. All courses in private universities are taught in English, and most graduate degrees in public universities are also taught in English (undergraduate level is not common). Malaysia is an ideal combination of low tuition and low cost of living. In recent years, the capital Kuala Lumpur has been rated as one of the most affordable student cities in the QS Best Student City Index. According to studyinmayamaia.com, the tuition fees of most students in Geelong are less than $3,000, while the living expenses of students are only about $5,000.
The highest ranked university in Malaysia: University of Malaya (tied 1 14).
3. Saudi Arabia
Because its universities are often among the best in the QS University ranking: the Arab region ranking, Saudi Arabia provides high-quality education at low cost and does not charge tuition fees in universities such as King's University of Saudi Arabia. Due to the prohibition of drinking and strict gender division, it may take some time for the country to adapt to the strict requirements of Islam. There are many courses with English as the teaching medium, especially master's and engineering, science and medicine courses. Many residents can speak English, but learning Arabic conversation will help you better adapt to the local study abroad life. In the latest QS Best Student City Index, Riyadh, the capital and largest city of Saudi Arabia, is listed as the third largest city that students can afford. But the cost of living here is too high for students to work during their studies.

4. Germany
Germany is a popular destination for studying abroad. All students can study in public universities in Germany for free. In addition to universities in Baden-Wü rttemberg, fees for non-EU students were again levied. But if you are a non-EU student in Baden-Wü rttemberg, your tuition is still much lower than that in other places, at 3,000 euros (about 3,500 dollars) per year. In the future, other States may re-charge tuition fees, so you can still study here for free.
In other parts of the country, some master's degrees do charge tuition fees, and all students have to pay mandatory semester fees to pay management fees-management fees are usually less than 300 euros (about 350 US dollars). Many Germans know English, but it's good to learn some basic German, especially if you want to work during or after your study, because it will increase your employment prospects. If you want to study in Germany in English, you need a bachelor's degree. You may have many choices, because courses taught in English are more common in master's degree. The highest ranked German university: technical university of munich (tied for 64th place).
5. France
If you want to study in France, but don't want to spend a lot of time learning French, you should be happy to know the good news: there are about 1200 English courses to choose from (master's degree is common), and the tuition is very low. Bachelor's degree 184 Euro (about 2 15 USD), Master's degree 256 Euro (about 300 USD) and Doctor's degree 39/KLOC-0 Euro (about 460 USD). French universities tend to use extra management fees to increase the cost of studying abroad, but the final figure will still be far lower than other study destinations.
The highest ranked university in France: Paris Teachers College (43rd).
6. India
The official languages of India are Hindi and English, but English is the teaching language of all universities. Tuition fees vary, which is much lower than many other study destinations. Tuition in private universities is higher than that in public universities. You can get a degree for as little as $3,200, although some courses cost as much as $7,700.
The better news is that the cost of living in India is incredibly low: you can live a comfortable life for only $5,000 a year. But it should be noted that you can't work while studying in India, so you can't earn extra money in this way.
The highest ranked university in India: Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi (No.172)
7. Norway
English teaching courses are becoming more and more common in Norway, especially in the master's stage, which is an ideal place to learn English. Tuition fees for all students in all public universities in Norway are free, which means that you only need to pay the student welfare organization fee of the school each semester (300-600 Norwegian kroner (about 38-75 US dollars). Unfortunately, the cost of living in Norway is very high, and the University of Oslo suggests that students should have an annual budget of at least $65,438+07,300. Students can work in Norway during their studies (non-EU students need a work permit), and you can also find corresponding scholarships.

8. Greece
How about studying in warm and sunny Greece? Greece is the birthplace of academic circles. Like other study destinations, you will find that English-taught courses are more common in Greece at the postgraduate stage. The international Greek university where graduate students choose to study is the only public university where all courses are taught in English. You can learn about English postgraduate courses offered by other Greek universities.
If you are an EU /EEA student, there is good news: there is no need to pay tuition in Greek public universities. If you are not a member of this lucky group, the tuition fees for non-EU students are still affordable, which is about 1.500 euros (about 1.750 US dollars). The cost of living in Greece is also the lowest in Europe (but this is due to the country's recent economic problems), and students need about $8,400 a year.
The highest ranked university in Greece: Athens National University of Technology (No.40 1-4 10)
9. Austria
Finally, our list of cheap English learning places ends with this beautiful Central European country, which has a lot to offer international students-famous universities, high-quality life and a desirable student city. Most undergraduate courses are taught in German, and master's English courses are more extensive-studienwahl.at has a very useful search tool for finding courses (just use the definition filter tool to display only English courses).
Many people here speak English, especially young people, but it's also a good idea to learn some German. If you are a national of EU /EEA, you can study for a bachelor's degree or a master's degree for free, as long as you finish it in the shortest time (plus two semesters' leeway). After that, you need to pay 363 euros (about 425 dollars) for each additional semester. Non-EU students are required to pay 1.453 euros (about 1.700 USD) every year, and all students must also pay the student union membership fee, which is about 1 euro (about 2/kloc-0 USD) every semester.
The highest ranked university in Austria: University of Vienna (No.154)
Other places where EU students can learn English for free.
Scotland: Students from Scotland and the European Union can study in Scotland for free, but students from other parts of the UK have to pay tuition fees. Although this situation may not last long due to Britain's departure from the European Union, the Scottish government has assured EU students enrolled in the 20 18/ 19 academic year that they will guarantee free tuition during the course.
Denmark, Finland and Sweden: All three Nordic countries provide EU students with tuition-free benefits and a large number of English courses. But non-EU students still have to pay tuition fees, and the cost of living in these countries is very high.
