How to enter a Czech university as a foreigner

The state program of the Czech Republic provides for the education of school and university graduates from other countries on a budgetary basis, provided that they have a good command of the Czech language. This is due to the specifics of teaching; without knowledge of the language, it is difficult to stay "on track" and fully comprehend information.

Compulsory Czech language examination

In addition to presenting a certificate of language proficiency (level B2), you are required to take a university exam. There is an alternative - Prague Education Center language courses with the right to take the state exam. A tutor, let alone self-study, will not provide a sufficient language base, as terminology is rarely included in dictionaries and regular study programs. Prague Education Center gives extensive knowledge - in just a semester students master Czech language up to level B2 (above average), and in a year the level grows up to C1 (high). The main feature of this school is that it trains not only face-to-face in the Czech Republic, but also remotely. That is, you can get quality preparation for entering a Czech university from the comfort of your own home. You can learn more about the program on the official page.

Nostrification

In addition to the Czech language exam and profile tests, applicants will have to undergo the process of nostrification of their educational documents. General school certificates and diplomas of higher education institutions not listed in the EU must be confirmed. In fact, it is another exam, during which the applicant proves that the grades received correspond to the level of knowledge.
