“From among all the courses of Czech,
I liked GoStudy’s conditions most of all.
I was given everything I needed, and not
only in terms of the language training.
We were assisted with document-related
issues, the foreign police etc. I came here
when I was 17, and, of course,
my eyes went soooo wide! I still
take lessons from one of our teachers
because I study journalism in Czech and
after a year of studying the language
it’s impossible to speak it as good
as native speakers. That’s why
I am still taking classes”.

SPECIAL PROGRAM PERIOD – STARTING FROM JULY 1
What distinguishes admission to the Czech higher education institutions of artistic training and makes it difficult is that their admission boards start working early. While other higher education institutions carry out their examinations in June, institutions of artistic training have them in December-January.
The “Admission to Higher Education Institutions of Artistic Training” program pays due regard to requirements and deadlines of admission boards of the Czech higher education institutions of artistic training. We will start teaching you in
July. So, by the time of filing your application in November, you will speak Czech to at least
at А2 Level and you will have completed nostrification of your education documents (this is required from foreign applicants by
higher education institutions).
Owing to intensive training, you will get your Czech language certificate in time and come to the entrance examinations to institutions of artistic training in January with a firm knowledge of Czech.

“I am satisfied with the program, GoStudy fulfilled absolutely all of its obligations. They helped me to go
through the approbation procedure in
the Czech Republic from its beginning
to the end. This is quite difficult and it is almost impossible to pass the
approbation procedure by one’s own
efforts. But thanks to GoStudy, my resettlement to the Czech Republic and
the approbation process was rather easy
and comfortable”.
