What You Get

DEAR PROSPECTIVE STUDENT,

Let us introduce the International Student Office of Wekerle Business School (WBS):

Our institution is proud of its professional work in which cultural differences are not only handled

in a successful way but in which these differences are considered to be opportunities which

enable students to learn to cope with any economic situation in any part of the world.

From the very first moment of your initial enquiry it is the International Student Office you will be

in contact with: we will guide you through your registration and school application process, will

provide you with Legal Assistance in your visa process, and upon arrival will help you arrange for

airport transfer as well as find accommodation that meets your requirements.

It is also the International Student Office where your first school–related ‘adventure’ in Hungary will

lead to, and where you will be informed on how to avail yourself of students’ transport and other

benefits (by obtaining a student card), how to settle your issues with the Hungarian authorities,

and what documents you will need for all that.

In addition, feel free to turn to us if you need help with compiling your timetable, accessing the

teaching material or receiving information on school events and important dates.

What is more, we arrange students into small classes so that the tutors can consider their

individual needs, and the regular communication between the staff and the tutors on the basis

of student-feedback ensures that you receive the highest-quality education.
