In this blog, we’ll discuss how much it costs to live comfortably in Georgia. After reading this post, you’ll be aware of Georgia’s approximate cost of living. Please note that this information is mostly aimed at helping international students who are planning to study in Georgia. Let’s begin right away.

Hostel Expanses:

In Georgia, very few universities provide dorms for rent to international students. Medical Study Abroad offer dormitories for all of their MBBS and BDS students. Each hostel room is equipped with a bed, a mattress, pillows, a blanket, two side tables, a cabinet, and a table and chair. Each week, the bedsheets and pillowcases are changed for the residents. There are specific times when hot water is accessible. Every room has central heating. There is a carpenter, an electrician, and a plumber available round the clock. Students who live at the hostel must sign an annual contract and abide by its rules, which include locking the gate at 11 p.m., registering any guests, keeping noise to a limit, and being respectful of other guests and fellow classmates. Additionally, there is 24-hour security available at the hostel to ensure the safety of all guests.

The majority of students prefer to stay in the authorized hostels at their own universities. The average monthly rent for a hostel is from 100 to 150 US dollars/month, depending on the location and facilities.

Electricity and internet costs are included in the hostel fee.

Hostels offer a wide range of meals that students can access for a monthly cost of about $100 USD. For Muslim communities to respect to their religious tenets, halal meals is also provided.

Students may also choose to make their own food if they so wish because it is more affordable and has a better taste as per their desire.

Medical Study Abroad Services providing hostel to MBBS and BDS students are connected to all basic provisions like metro, bus stop, super markets and other convenience stores.

Apartment Expanses:

The cost of living in Georgia for international students is high if they opt to live in apartments. The USD is recommended for students to utilize to pay their rent because it is more stable than the Lari (GEL). It’s also the sensible thing to do because the majority of students receive their funding in USD from their parents.

Students who want to live away from campus can rent an apartment.

One-room apartments ranged in price from 250 to 350 US dollars per month.

The average cost of utilities, including water, sewage, and electricity, is 20 to 50 dollar per month.

An average internet charge for 30 mb speed cost 10 US dollar.

While staying in a rented flat in Georgia, students are recommended to handle themselves properly. Yes! Georgia has several foreigner-friendly neighborhoods, but we still caution students living off campus to never take their personal security for granted.

Transport:

A ticket for public transport vehicles (Bus and Metro) costs $0.20 for everyone. However, students with “students’ cards” pay only $0.09 for a ticket. Each ticket is valid for 1.30hr. Within the 1.30hr validity frame, a ticket holder can enter any public vehicle for FREE with the ticket card.

Yandex and Bolt exist in major Georgian cities for everyone who prefers to use taxi. Taxis charge about $2 for a 7km journey. And cars are affordable for those who prefer to purchase a vehicle while studying in Georgia.
