Best university for UG degree in physics with low fees and low cost of living

In summary: Apologies for this and thanks for merging the two threads.In summary, the conversation discussed the best university for an undergraduate degree in physics with low fees and low cost of living. The suggestions given were the United States Naval Academy, state schools with full scholarships and research activity, and the Universitat Leipzig in Europe. The original poster also mentioned their budget of 3000-3300 euros per year for tuition and living expenses and their preference for studying in English. However, it was advised to do further research on specific universities and to improve critical thinking skills before making a decision.

Or if one doesn't want to participate in an immoral organization designed to inflict death on other humans, I'd say the best low cost university is any school at which you can get a full scholarship and which has a fair amount of research activity. State schools are good for this.

Suitable country (EU) for study

I have decided to study BSc physics outside my country (India). I can finance up to 3000-3300 euros per year (including tuition fees, cost of living). Also the only European language I am comfortable with is English so if medium of instruction is English then it is much better, but I can study other language if needed. So which will be the best suitable country or university according to my need (in EU) ?

@sodaboy7: A simple google search on the European Universities will provide you the relevant answers on what you are looking for. http://www.webometrics.info/top500_europe.asp

Don't expect the forum members to do the spoon-feeding for you. If you have any specific questions regarding a certain university, someone over here might help you.

That sort of money isn't enough to live/study anywhere in Europe, even the cheapest of locations. I doubt you would get through customs at the airport with that much on a student visa.

Really didn't have to make two different threads.

I did the best I could to merge and clean up the two threads.

The reason I answered USNA was to try and make it clear that any specific answer to such a general question is worthless. But your response was to give us one only more bit of information. Parceling out the details of your question a tiny bit at a time is going to get you your answer slowly, provided the people who could answer it don't give up in frustration first.

Most students ready for college have the critical thinking skills to figure this out. Also, most students who want to go to a college where the language of instruction is English can comprehend the PF Rules on multiple posting. Are you sure you're ready for this? It might not be a bad idea to invest a year developing these skills before leaving the country to go to college.

I posted two threads to make my views clearer, but I had no intention of violating PF rules.
