How much it would actually cost to go to Hogwarts

Students could go to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry for as little as £1,130, according to a new study.

One of Europe’s leading price comparison sites, idealo.co.uk has magically got its hands on the famous Hogwarts shopping list, to give ambitious witches and wizards the true cost of going to a school like Hogwarts itself – don’t worry it’s been converted from magic money to the English pound, so every student can jump on the Hogwarts express and start their adventure.

After J.K Rowling confirmed that £5 is approximately one Galleon in Harry Potter currency, idealo found that it would be a lot cheaper going to Hogwarts than attending a Muggle university, which currently costs on average £9,250 per year just for tuition fees.

Hogwarts has a very specific shopping list as to what they require in your first year of studies, these costs at first could come as a surprise to a Muggle, but are supported by the Ministry of Magic who pays for all tuition fees. The full list of items can be found below;
