Current provider coverage is a selected public-university core with targeted Valencia and Granada expansion. Institution identity uses verified official names while stable RUCT code reconciliation remains pending.
Living-cost methodology
UAM estimates approximately EUR 800–1,200/month for tighter student budgets and EUR 1,200–1,600 or more depending on accommodation and personal spending. The stored range spans the stated broad student estimate.
