Study at the best Czech universities for free.
According to the law, higher education in the Czech Republic (bachelor’s and master’s degree studies) is free for everyone, including foreigners. The only condition is that you have to study in Czech. But don’t be afraid! It is difficult, but possible.
The chances of ÚJOP Charles University graduates to enter the best universities in popular specialties increase significantly. We have been successfully preparing foreign students for admission to Czech universities for over 60 years.
What are the advantages of a diploma received in the Czech Republic?
First, you get free access to the Czech labor market – you do not need to go through complicated procedures, which are mandatory for foreigners that do not have a Czech diploma.
The second important argument in favor of a Czech diploma is that your education is easily recognized in any country of the European Union.
