Szeged, on the River Tisza, is called Hungary's 'city of sunshine' and is known for its Art Nouveau buildings, the Votive Church and the University of Szeged, one of the country's leading universities. Famous for its paprika and fish soup, it offers a calm, student-friendly setting.
Ask NGGlobal's advisers about the current language study options in Szeged. The University of Szeged's Hungarian courses and English and medical preparation programs are among the options.
How long you study depends on your goal: 2-4 weeks for a short holiday course, 3-6 months for everyday communication, and usually 9-12 months for a university application. At most schools, courses can be extended week by week.
Fees vary from school to school: university language centres and private language schools can sit in different price ranges. Planning your course, accommodation and airport transfer together lowers the total cost. Ask NGGlobal for a quote with current prices and discounts.
Language schools accept students all year round. For short courses, booking 4-6 weeks ahead is usually enough. For programs requiring a national visa, plan your application 3-4 months ahead to allow for appointment waiting times.
Your visa type depends on the length and type of your program: a Schengen visa for short courses and a residence permit for study for university and preparatory programs. For students coming on the Stipendium Hungaricum scholarship, the process is handled within the scholarship program. Check current conditions in official sources; NGGlobal helps you prepare your documents.
