  • January courses use 16 months full-time, so September full-course figures are the cleanest annual comparison.
  • Course pages confirm September starts for the remaining featured PG programmes.

Note: Annual tuition is not the same as a full-programme bill. January PG routes use a longer published duration than September routes.

Cost of Living in Dundee for Indian Students

Dundee living expenses range from £695 (INR 89,537) to £1,460+ (INR 1.88 Lakhs) monthly on Abertay estimates.

Expense Monthly (GBP and INR) Annual (INR) Notes for Indian Students
Accommodation £475 (INR 61,194) to £1,000+ (INR 1.29 Lakhs) INR 7.34 to 15.46 Lakhs Room type, bills, and location change the total.
Food and groceries £160 (INR 20,613) to £250 (INR 32,208) INR 2.47 to 3.86 Lakhs Cooking reduces dependence on takeaway meals.
Transport £0 (INR 0) to £50 (INR 6,442) INR 0 to 77,298 Walking can reduce the Dundee transport allowance.
Internet £0 (INR 0) to £30 (INR 3,865) INR 0 to 46,379 Some accommodation packages include connectivity.
Social and entertainment £50 (INR 6,442) to £100 (INR 12,883) INR 77,298 to 1.55 Lakhs Set a monthly ceiling before arrival.
Course materials £10 (INR 1,288) to £30 (INR 3,865) INR 15,460 to 46,379 Digital materials can reduce this allowance.
Total £695 (INR 89,537) to £1,460+ (INR 1.88 Lakhs) INR 10.74 to 22.57 Lakhs Use the lease period, not only monthly rent.
  • Abertay housing should be checked before private rooms because lease terms and bills differ.
  • Private leases may require a deposit and may exclude utilities from the advertised rent.
  • Walkable Dundee housing can reduce the transport allowance, but the commute must be checked.
  • University accommodation availability depends on application timing and residence rules.

Note: Abertay estimates living costs monthly, but housing leases often cover 43 weeks. Compare total lease cost, bills, deposit, and transport before choosing a room.

Currency Tip: The January 2027 deposit is £7,975 (INR 10.27 Lakhs). A 2% to 3% conversion saving can preserve about INR 20,548 to 30,823. September 2027 UG applicants should compare the INR quote again when the next fee and deposit dates publish.

Scenario Tuition Living, 12-month PG basis Mandatory fees Total Year 1
Low living £18,950 (INR 24.41 Lakhs) £8,340 (INR 10.74 Lakhs) £1,334 (INR 1.72 Lakhs), one-year comparison £28,624 (INR 36.88 Lakhs)

  • Tuition is shown before the Abertay International Scholarship.
  • Living uses Abertay's lower, midpoint, and upper monthly estimates multiplied by 12 months.
  • UG planning uses 10 months of living, from £6,950 (INR 8.95 Lakhs) to £14,600+ (INR 18.81 Lakhs).
  • The £1,334 (INR 1.72 Lakhs) mandatory comparison combines a £558 (INR 71,887) Student Visa fee and one year of £776 (INR 99,972) Immigration Health Surcharge (IHS).
  • The IHS is paid upfront for the full visa period, not only one year.
  • The tuition deposit reduces the tuition balance and is not an additional cost.

At unchanged current rates, the 12-month September route has a full-programme budget of £31,984 (INR 41.20 Lakhs), or about INR 0.41 Crore. A 25 Lakh education loan implies an EMI of about INR 33,500 monthly over 10 years at 10.5%.

Key Insight: For January 2027, a £3,000 (INR 3.86 Lakhs) Abertay scholarship plus a 5% full-payment discount on £15,950 (INR 20.55 Lakhs) can save about INR 4.89 Lakhs. Confirm the award before the next instalment.
