Cost for a year. One year comes to 74,530 USD, before any scholarship. 1 scholarship comes with an amount, but none says international students can apply, so nothing is taken off yet.

Deadline and visa. The application deadline is 1/11. How long the visa takes is up to the consulate; see the country note.
