Whether you need a car depends on your study destination’s public transport system, walkability, and your daily commute. Cities with robust transit networks (e.g., London, Tokyo) make car ownership unnecessary. Bike-friendly areas or compact campuses may also reduce reliance on cars.
Consider costs like parking, insurance, and fuel, which can be high in urban areas. Car-sharing services or rentals may suffice for occasional trips. Research local options before deciding—many students rely on buses, trains, or cycling for affordability and convenience.
