Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is there an entrance exam for a BSc. of Economics?

We offer long-distance exams, which means the Applicants do not have to come to Prague to write any exam.

2. Which documents are needed for the application?

–  Essay (topic chosen by the applicant), Motivation video, Copy of Passport, High School Diploma (if Applicant has already achieved it)

Do not worry when you have not yet obtained your diploma – Most applicants will graduate after the deadline. We realize this situation, and the Diploma is submitted only when the Applicant has already obtained it. More info below:

3. May I apply when I have not achieved my high school diploma?

YES – We realise many of your applicants did not obtain their diplomas before our deadline. High schools usually finish their terms later than in April. That’s why the Applicant doesn’t have to submit the Diploma with the other required documents. If we accept the applicant to study, he will submit a diploma at enrollment in September.

4. What does Recognition of previous education mean?

Each student who has graduated from a High school out of the Czech Republic has to submit his/her High school leaving certificate Recognition no later than on Enrollment day (September).  How to achieve this document you can find on the website 

5. Is there any administration fee?

Yes, 50 EUR must be paid with the Application to cover the administrative costs of the admission procedure.

6. Where can I be logged and where can I eat?

Students can live in the VSE University´s dormitory in Prague – Jarov I, about 15 minutes away by tram to the main University campus in Zizkov, where classes and seminars are held.  Meals are offered in the dormitory and on the university campus for favourable student prices. Besides this, there are plenty of different types of restaurants and cafeterias near the University to choose from.

7. What is the exact cost of the Tuition Fee for the semester?

The tuition fee is 2500 EUR per semester, which means half of an academic year.  Therefore, the total tuition for a whole year is 5000 EUR. Please also consider some accommodation costs and other living expenses (insurance, meals, transportation, etc.) that are not included in the tuition but are offered to our students at favourable rates. Please check the Student Life section. The tuition fee must be paid before each relevant semester starts.

8. What will I need to live in the dormitory?

The basic equipment that you might need for living in the student residence (e.g. sheets and desk lamps) is provided to our students by the dormitories. However, as there are no dishes in the dormitory kitchenettes, we recommend buying these items when you arrive in Prague as the prices are pretty low. Much more info, inc. prices, can be found here.
