💰 Hidden costs of studying in the U.S.

Tuition is only one part of your budget — and that is normal.
A real student budget also includes things like health insurance, housing deposits, textbooks, flights, local transport, winter clothes, a laptop and occasional medical bills.

The good news: when you plan for these in advance, they stop being “hidden” and become just another part of your study plan.
Ask not only “Can I afford this?” but “How can I plan for this?” — and build your budget like a real life plan, step by step, not like a glossy brochure.

☀️ A June reminder: summer is one of the best times to prepare for U.S. study — not because you have to panic, but because you finally have space to think.

This month, pick just one meaningful step:
• build your university list;
• compare costs;
• improve your English test score;
• rewrite your activities section;
• book an advising session.

Small calm progress is still progress. 🌿
