Video feedback from a FOUNDATION program graduate

She learned Czech to level B2 in just one year, so she is now studying at a public university completely free of charge!
Also, from her first year at university, she started working part-time, so now she lives independently and provides for herself.
FAQ - frequently asked questions
Yes, the confirmation from our courses is suitable for the military commissariat and gives a deferral from the army for the duration of training.
Studying on courses is equivalent to studying at a university and gives the right to officially work a certain number of hours per year. If you manage to combine attending classes, doing homework and working part-time, then it’s ok.
This question worries most of our preparatory course students. Throughout the year, we conduct a number of presentations of various specialties, invite our graduate students of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd year of universities and provide a lot of useful information about existing directions and specialties. Universities also hold open days, where you can get answers to your questions directly from representatives and students of universities. If after this there remains uncertainty and insecurity, you can take our Career Test and receive analysis and recommendations in areas taking into account your individual abilities and predispositions.
It is ideal to apply for the course in September as you enter your final year of school or college. It takes about a year to quickly apply for a Czech student visa and prepare for the trip, so that by the time of your final exams you already have a visa and a clear action plan. The application deadline for the annual foundation differs depending on the country.
We have 100% of graduates, because even if you didn’t manage to pass the entrance exam on the first try, then in the summer there are second rounds in many public universities, and you can also apply to most private universities until the end of August. All summer we provide individual consultations for everyone.
