Plan your study budget

Your budget has three parts: tuition, day-to-day living and the costs of getting settled. Use the references below to start planning, then confirm the figures for your course and city.

Tuition & fee references

Tuition-free Czech-language study does not mean that an English-taught degree is free. Check the programme’s fee schedule and assessment costs.

Living-cost planning reference

€500–800per month · Study in Czechia planning range

Private flats and study in Prague or Brno can cost more. Local expenses are paid in Czech crowns; the euro range is a comparison reference.

Confirm current costs for your city and intake. A living-cost estimate is separate from the immigration authority’s financial-evidence requirement.

Fees vary by programme, year and legal status. A semester fee, annual fee and full-programme fee cover different periods. Confirm what is included, payment dates and refund terms with the institution.

Allow for initial expenses

Include application and visa charges, document preparation, insurance, travel and accommodation deposits. Ask what is included before paying; any agency service charge is separate from university and government fees.

Check funding early

Review scholarships with the university or award provider. Check eligibility, deadlines and what an award covers. Build your plan around confirmed funds.

Entry requirements & how to apply

Requirements depend on your qualification, citizenship and chosen programme. Check the university’s current instructions before preparing your application.

Academic entry requirements

A foreign school qualification may need recognition. The English International Business example uses an admissions interview; other faculties may use entrance tests.

Language & course requirements

Check the actual teaching language and accepted proficiency evidence. Preparatory study, entrance assessments and additional subject requirements depend on the course.

For a master’s degree

Check the recognised first degree, relevant subject background and grades required by the programme. Some courses also ask for professional experience, a portfolio, research proposal or an interview.
