What this tells a student deciding on Lithuania

A high graduate employment rate means the labour market absorbs new graduates quickly — the single most useful signal when you cannot see salaries. Lithuania sits above the European median on this measure.

Public spending per student is the closest thing Europe has to a teaching-quality figure. It is not a fee: what an international student pays is set by each university and by your nationality, and no European body publishes it centrally. That is why these pages do not quote a price — and why the US and Canadian pages on this site do.
