A recent study issued by the Czech International Education Database ranked Casablanca as the second cheapest African city in terms of the cost of international education in 2021, with an average budget of $4,735, equivalent to MAD 43,600.
The study, which monitored the cost of international education around the world in 2021, stated that Africa remains, for the third year in a row, the least expensive compared to the rest of the world.
Many countries’ prices have changed in light of the pandemic, affecting their ranking, whereas Casablanca moved from being 44th globally to the 72nd spot, making it the second cheapest African city for educational fees.
Annual fees for international students in Casablanca range from $1,805 to $1,489.
Last year, Casablanca was the most expensive African city on the ranking, mainly due to the pandemic.
The Czech Foundation ranked South African city Cape Town to be the cheapest city on the continent, with an average price of about $4,301, pointing out that both Cape Town and Johannesburg offer “reasonable prices” for international education fees.
The report ranked the Kenyan city of Nairobi at the top of the list, making it the most expensive African city for education this year, with an average price of $7,296, followed by the Ethiopian city of Addis Ababa for which the average budget is $6,500, and the Ugandan city of Kampala, where fees are around $6000.
