Living Expenses
Living expenses in Hamburg depend considerably on your personal lifestyle. We recommend students to budget at least 940 Euros / month. Please note that the semester contribution to Universität Hamburg (currently 340 €) has to be paid twice per year.
Health Insurance
Once you have been accepted to a M.Sc. program, you will need to submit, in addition to your application for enrollment, proof of health insurance coverage. In case you have to become a member of a German state insurance provider, this will be an additional cost of ca. 120 € per month.
