Living in Ukraine – STUDY IN UKRAINE

Cost of living in Ukraine varies widely depending on the region and the city. Naturally, large cities such as Kiev & Odessa have a much higher cost of living than smaller ones such as Lviv, Ternopil, Dnipropetrovsk, Donetsk, Lugansk, Ivano-frankivsk, Nikolaev or Kherson. Rural areas are even cheaper, also with much lower costs of labor. Overall, Ukraine has a relatively low cost of living, especially if one is able to replicate a Western salary while living here.  According to recent scores, Ukraine was ranked around 70th most costly place on the cost of living globally. A student will need to have about $150 to $ 200 per month available for living costs, above the cost of your tuition.

It is a common misconception by new visitors to think that Kiev is a cheap city. While it is substantially less expensive than many other European capitals, the central part of Kiev contains the same boutiques as large cities such as Moscow, Rome, Paris and others, with prices being approximately the same on the items sold there.  Many apartments in the central part of Kiev are also affordable, particularly those located on the main street of Kreschatik and ones containing luxury amenities.   However, people who spend an extended period of time in Kiev, learn that in comparison to other European capitals, Kiev is in fact fairly cheap.
