International school and university fees are one of the largest costs an expat family faces, and fee inflation makes the real number far higher than most people expect. This tool shows you the true cost and whether you are on track.
You enter each stage of education for each child, the annual cost and when it starts. The tool applies fee inflation to each year’s fees, projects your existing savings and monthly contributions forward, and shows whether there is a shortfall.
One point that catches expat families out: whether a UK university charges home or international fees depends on residency history, and the difference is substantial. It is worth confirming your children’s likely status well in advance, and our guide to UK residence rules explains how residence is determined.
This is an illustration to help you plan, not financial advice. Costs and investment returns will differ from any projection.
