Can I study a master’s in travel and tourism in Sweden within a budget of 5 lakhs INR?

Please be aware that the housing situation at the more popular universities can be dire – we are talking here especially about Uppsala, Lund, and the bigger cities of Stockholm and Göteborg. The budget is based on a student room; regular housing will be a lot more expensive.
As far as I can figure out, this is equivalent to some 65,000 SEK.
Excluding tuition from the calculations altogether, it will cover a student room, but will require an incredibly strict food budget and nothing in the way of clothing, &c. Swedish students have a basic budget of SEK 13,000 per month, to cover rent, food, clothes, various odds and ends, and coursebooks.
Thanks for the A2A.
Per month, it’s a luxury lifestyle. For a year, it’s probably about 50% of the tuition fee for a non-EU student (it will vary by university).
You can take those SEK 13,000 per month as a baseline; you will probably have somewhat higher costs as a foreign student since it’s not like you can pop back home to e.g. borrow an iron for your shirts. Add tuition fee for whatever studies you are interested in.
