Checking the latest available rate…
The ECB normally publishes a new reference rate on working days, except on certain closing days. This is a planning conversion, not a bank quote: the amount you pay may differ because of the provider’s rate and charges. If rates are unavailable, the converter will say so rather than use an undated figure. Read the ECB’s explanation of its reference rates ↗

A degree may last several years. If the family earns euros and pays fees or rent in pounds or dollars, redo the calculation with a less favourable rate before deciding what is affordable. Budget for transfer charges and the dates when large payments are due.
The student cost calculator builds a complete course budget in one currency. The offer comparison helps weigh that cost alongside course fit, housing and support.
A useful three-step check
- Get the fee and housing price from the course and provider.
- Convert both at the dated reference rate above.
- Ask your bank or payment provider what you would actually pay, including charges.
