Is it difficult to find housing?
So far all of our students have found suitable housing. Please consult real estate agency websites for the latest information.
Medical care:
Each
student is supposed to arrange Student Health Insurance in his/her
country. The Czech Republic normally recognises all health insurances
valid within EU. Neverthless, you should check with your insurance
office whether this is the case of your particular health insurance -
please make sure your insurance is valid in the Czech Republic.
For health insurance circumstances within Czech republic consult the website HERE.
For concrete possibility of medical assistance in case of need consult the article Medical care for students in Prague.
Immigration/Visa:
Foreign students are responsible for their legal status while in the Czech Republic. Please
contact your local embassay for more specific information about
obtaining a student visa. Students from EU countries and the US may opt
to legally visit the Czech Republic without a visa – please consult
your embassay.
