Studying abroad is becoming more and more popular especially among high-school students, who are eager to learn about opportunities to continue their studies at a university or a college abroad after obtaining their high school diploma in Hungary. Spending a few years abroad as a university student is of course an experience for a lifetime with plenty of opportunities to develop academically and personally, discover new places and building connections with people from all over the world. It also gives you the chance to improve your foreign language knowledge, broaden your horizons, and to become self-confident and independent. Last but not least, an international diploma is an indisputable benefit later as well.

The most popular study destinations among Hungarian students are the Scandinavian countries (Denmark, Finland and Sweden), the Netherlands and the UK, however, Belgium – with its affordable tuition fees – is also chosen more and more often. Students are also interested in studying in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, and even Canada or the US. Education in the Scandinavian countries is not only free for all EU citizens, but also innovative and practical, which makes it attractive to international students. Similarly, university programs in the Netherlands are also very good-quality and practice-oriented with teachers who have real-life experience in the field they teach.

More than 2000 English-taught programs are available in the Netherlands, including special courses, which might not even exist in other countries. Even after Brexit, the UK still remains quite a liked destination among students, since British universities are acknowledged world-wide, and have their hundreds of years of tradition behind. German-speaking countries are also among the top study destinations of students in Hungary, especially among those who come from German-Hungarian bilingual classes. Apart from European countries, the American and Canadian colleges are gaining popularity as well.
