I’ve learned about some amazing programs for international students to study in Hungary, discovered the Hungarian flatbreads called langos, and finally understood the appeal of Budapest!

If you are already exploring the option of college in Europe, you likely have what sociologist Mark Granovetter refers to as a “low threshold”.
Unlike the US university system, which views studying abroad as an opportunity to generate high fees from unwitting students, the European study abroad is promoted by the EU who puts money INTO encouraging students to study in outside their home country.
The American dream is uniquely expensive when it comes to attending college, and stressful enough to prematurely age even the most optimistic applicant. But there’s hope.
Europe has amazing college options for American students, offering English-taught programs costing far less than you’d expect.
Why don’t more people opt out of this costly, stressful, and arbitrary system? I think it’s because many don’t know that there actually is a better way!
I can’t tell you how glad I am that we added Ireland! Though more expensive than most of the offerings in continental Europe, they are still less expensive than private universities in the United States.
“My name is Claire, and I am studying Environmental Engineering at Czech University of Life Sciences in Prague, Czech Republic. I am currently in my second year having experience with both COVID and non COVID times.”
We sometimes get the question, “Will I miss out on sports by going to school in Europe?” The answer is, “No”, but the form may be different than what one expects.
Though these qualities are all distinct, the combination of these traits is a crucial component for success as an international student in Europe.
I can only imagine how different the last three years of our lives would have been (as well as the next four) if we didn’t know about these alternatives.
I recognize that most Americans are not exposed to cultural diversity on a regular basis. How can those students develop the traits needed for success abroad?
