Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine, was one of Eastern Europe's important education centres before the war, with its historic monasteries on the Dnipro, St Sophia's Cathedral and long-established universities. The city offered international students a wide range of programs in medicine, engineering and languages.
Once security conditions allow, ask NGGlobal's advisers about the current language study options in Kyiv. Preparatory faculties and language courses at Kyiv's universities will be among the options once conditions return to normal.
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.
