€10,179.85 across twelve months is about €848 a month. That is a legal floor, not a living budget. It sits under the real cost of every city we have costed, except the cheapest.

Before a university reads your file
Your papers travel before you do.
A university abroad reads a Pakistani transcript only after it has been attested and legalised at home, in this order.
Embassy of Italy, Islamabad
Legalises the attested documents and issues the Declaration of Value where the university asks for one.
Find out where you actually stand.
Three questions, the full result on screen, free, and a link you can send to your parents.
The three questions
- What have you studied, and how did you do?
- What do you want to study in Italy?
- What can your family put behind it?
You get the answer whether or not it is the one you wanted. An eligibility result that always says yes is worth nothing.
