Defaults to the UKVI figure (£1,171 a month outside London) — the minimum for the visa, not a budget. Real costs depend on your accommodation and lifestyle, so edit it.
Leave blank to use the estimate: about 17 months for a 12-month course (course plus the usual time before and after). The health surcharge is based on this.

The health surcharge (£776 a year) is paid up front for the whole visa, so it is counted in full here. Your exact amount is shown when you apply, based on your visa dates.
Living costs cover the first 12 months. For the visa you only need to show up to 9 months of the UKVI figure — check it with the Financial Readiness Checker.
Figures checked 16 October 2026 — source: GOV.UK (money you need, Student visa fee, health surcharge). Government figures change — check GOV.UK before you pay or apply. Tuition comes from institution flyers and applies to the whole route; living costs are your own estimate. Results are a general guide based on published information, not an offer, an eligibility decision or immigration advice. The NepliFly team confirms everything with you before any application.
