Course description

Preparatory Course "Basic"

The most affordable year-long preparatory course in Prague!
This course is an intensive Czech language program designed for students planning to apply to Czech state universities for bachelor's and master's programs.
Most universities require applicants to have at least a B2 level of Czech proficiency, and this program fully covers the necessary language requirements.

Based on our many years of experience, courses with fewer hours do not allow for the comprehensive development of the high level of proficiency necessary for successful admission and subsequent studies at the university.

This course is suitable for residents of EU countries and those extending their long-term visas or residence permits.
In addition to the course, you can also purchase visa support and mentoring packages, as well as necessary subject-specific preparation materials.
