We are aware that studying in a distant country can be exciting, adventurous and terrifying, and stressful at the same time. To remember the experienced adventure in the first place with your competitive degree in your hands, we have developed scholarship programmes those will help you bear the financial burden of your studies.

International Student Ambassador Programme of University of Pécs

International Student Ambassadors (ISAs) are current students who act as a link between their faculty and the outside community. They use their own experiences to give people interested in university life an idea of what it is like to be a student. They assist at a variety of events; their role is to give a fair and accurate representation of the university from a student perspective.
Also, from this year we would like to extend this programme and allow the ISAs to recruit students to the university in a commission-based cooperation with the faculties.
