For graduate programs, this would be around $30000 to $50000 per annum. More extensive research programs like medicine may charge over $60000 per year.

Living Expenses: You need around $10000 to $15000 per year towards accommodation, food, transport, textbooks, insurance and other living costs. So in total, budget $25000 to $65000 annually for studying in the US.
