Pretty good. The University helped us to find accomodation. But it's 5 times expensive than my home country. Other expences are quite same, or sometimes less than my home country.

Personal comments
Well, There are lot of ways, Try to go to Supermarkets which are just 15-30 mins from University. You can find lot of stuff from there for chaper price. The Hungarian government provides lot of benifits to students. Try to find what is available during first few weeks of your stay.
