Students’ blogs

One hundred and ninety-three. This is how many graduates of grammar schools and other high schools have been enrolled at prestigious universities in the last eight years thanks to The Kellner Family Foundation. To be specific, 53 young people from the Czech Republic are currently studying abroad and in the Czech Republic in the 2020/2021 academic year.

Do you want to know how they rate their life abroad and what difficulties they had to tackle when they first got there? Read their blogs. They have made the choice to share their academic and extracurricular experiences with others. Grantees under the Universities project write about their everyday life on campus and their future plans. You can read how difficult university examinations are and how they spend their spare time and tackle the difficulties of studying abroad. Student blogs can help those who only know that they plan to go to a university and do not yet know which one to choose.

Advice from students to students

How to prepare for studying abroad before leaving home, what not to forget to pack, and where to find ordinary things like blankets abroad? The simplest things can be a big problem for a university neophyte. Studying abroad gives rise to a number of difficult situations where older colleagues’ advice can come in handy. Universities project students stick together. Who else can give the best advice on how to succeed as a neophyte on campus and in lectures than those who were just tyros themselves just a few years ago?

Studying abroad

Each of the countries to which most of Czech students go has its advantages and disadvantages. We have prepared for you an easy-to-navigate summary on studying in the U.K., the U.S., Germany, Austria, the Netherlands, Switzerland, and Ireland.
