The cost of living in Switzerland echoes the country’s high standard of living. The Swiss have access to excellent quality products, transportation, quality accommodation, and superior cultural and tourism offerings. While an outsider may feel that the cost of living is high, what they often miss out is that the Swiss are also paid pretty well.

Usually the cost of studying & living in Switzerland for an international student depends on their personal choice of recreational activities but it safe to keep at least 1600 CHF (Rs.1 lakh) – 2000 CHF (Rs.1.4 lakh) for your monthly expenses (including tuition fee.)

Health Insurance

If you plan to stay in Switzerland for more than three months, it is compulsory that you have basic health insurance coverage. International students who are insured from their own country (your home country’s health insurance must meet Swiss requirements) may be exempted from this compulsory health insurance. The monthly premium for Swiss health insurers vary between 80 – 350 CHF.
