Student Cost of Living

There is documentation on work-study programs and budgeting accounts. One states that if a student where to live by themself and taking a 5-month semester college program, they could expect to spend $5,000 USD for the whole 5 months. This includes rent, groceries, clothing, transportation and all necessities.

However, the rough estimate to spend per month, is around $1,000 USD. Students would need to be a bit careful since this is a bit of a higher amount, along with budgeting accurately. It is easy to go over budget when a student is in a new country and they don’t quite understand the currency exchange. Sos students should be aware of what they are buying and the price difference.

Cost of Tuition

Public tuition is free, and that means certain subject fields are free of tuition while some other subjects such as medicine may cost a bit. This is solely based on what subject fields will use more of the college faciality than others.

A private tuition costs around $12,500 for one full year.

There is an application fee that comes to about $100 USD and an identification fee that will be $25 USD in total.

These are the things a student should budget towards.

Languages Spoken in Panama

There is a total of 14 different languages spoken in this country. The main official language is Spanish. However, other languages do include English, Japanese, Chinese, Hebrew, Arabic, Yiddish and Korean.

In some of Panama’s universities it is s a requirement that students know how to speak Spanish. With this being the case, that means it would be better if students who feel comfortable enough speaking Spanish should apply for Panama’s Spanish scholarships.
