- It can be overwhelming starting your journey in University never mind starting it in a completely different country. This video aims to provide potential future students at the University of Pécs with some basic key information regarding living arrangements in the city so new students don’t feel as lost as I once did.

Your videos are very helpful!
hello! i’m an upcoming student at the uni. thank you for this
I like your videos, very informative🙂
Thank you, much appreciated! 🤜🏻
Hi! The video was super helpful thanks!! I’m planning on applying to the bachelors in business management program for sept’24 semester and i’m from Pakistan I hope things go according to plan:))
Good luck with everything! I hope it works out too!
good information! cheers
Thank You for you efforts, all of your videos are very informative . my question is.. As a scholarship student (first year) do you have the right to choose your Dorm ?
Thank you very much for sharing your experience, I'm hopping to apply for a masters degree in computer science engineering in the 2024/2025 call, regarding the living situation in the dormitories it's not a problem for me I'm a Cuban graduate and we used to live 12 to 16 people in the same dormitory with a floor bathroom and no kitchen which is fine by me because I meet some of my best friends thanks to that and had the opportunity to learn so much about so many different cultures. I hope I get excepted in any university, I'm aiming for PÉCS but any other option is fine. Anyway thank you very much for sharing your experience and best of luck in the future
Thank you so much for sharing, I appreciate it!
@@CamMedLife All thanks are to you brother for making these videos it helps a lot
Thank you very much this video has been very helpful! I have been accepted to Physics Bsc and will be studying there this September.
Awesome, enjoy the rest of your holiday before it all begins! 🙌🏻
I have also been accepted for physics bsc and am really excited for it
@@abdulrahumannawrouse Congratulations, wishing you all the best for your studies!
Thank you so much for your amazing videos they are very helpful, i was accepted to study Msc architecture through SH ... Hopefully i could meet you some day and thank you in person
Thank you for your kind words and massive congratulations on your acceptance!! Who knows, maybe we will meet some day
Hey! I am looking at University of Pecs for a study abroad option. I am studying architecture and was wondering how the program is there? I will be a 4th year student (from the U.S.) by the time I study abroad, so I was wondering if you had any input on the higher level architecture classes?
@@gagecarlton6351 I just started my second semester in the masters of architecture here ... I can say that the approach here is quite design intensive and is over all pretty good from my experience here... Also the doctors in the faculty can speak very good english for the most part.
I would say its a pretty good option to consider 😁
@@ShamsMMS Awesome! Thank you for replying! Are you quite busy with a lot of school work or do you have a good amount of free time to explore and do activities? Also, how difficult are the classes? Where I am, we are always super busy with school work and the classes are pretty intense, and we focus more on design than mathematics behind our work, so I wanted to know if the classes are super math based and hard or not. Sorry for all of the questions, I’m just so unsure of where I would like to go. Again, thank you for answering!
Hey… glad to see u here . I am also gonna start Msc arch in the upcoming semester.
Thank you for making the video, it was very informative! I'm from Indonesia and got a scholarship to study at the University of Pecs in september
Thank you for your feedback and congratulations! If you have any further questions, feel free to ask! ☺️
Hey! Thank you so much for a video. I got accepted to the university of Pecs, too. I`m waiting for the scholarship decision now but hope to get it as well. I wanted to ask you about job opportunities. Is it hard to find a part-time job in Pecs?
Hey, congrats on the acceptance!! Also, good luck with regards to the scholarship, hopefully you receive positive news. I have to be honest, I’m not entirely sure about the difficulty of getting part-time work. I know that it is a possibility but for more information I would recommend emailing the university to see what they would be able to do to help with finding a job. info@aok.pte.hu
@@CamMedLife Thank you for your answer and wish you all the best!
Hello could you tell me if you have any information about Balassa dormitory as it was not mentioned in the video.I could not find enough info about it so can you tell me anything you know about the living conditions there?
Hey, it is a less known dormitory so unfortunately I don’t know much about it. The ones I included in the video were the ones I could get Info on before coming to Pécs as well as whilst in Pécs since I had friends there or I conversations with people when I was out. Wish I could be of more help
How is the job market for student in pecs? Thank you for the video.😊
I haven’t really looked into it because I don’t have time to work on top of studying even though I would like to but there are some jobs available. A lot of students do food deliveries and then there should be some openings at some stores and restaurants (potentially) but it is a small city so jobs are not plentiful. I would advise emailing the university for more clarity.
i got into the Sźantó dormitory! Is there a microwave, oven and kettle provided in the kitchen in each block? or do we have to buy them ourselves?
Hey, there is a 2 place stove, a fridge and storage space from what I remember. So you need to maybe purchase one of those kettles that you can put on the stove (which is cheap) and I just warmed up my food in the pan. There is no oven unfortunately
Hi! Your video was helpful. I am from Nigeria. I am planning on applying for Mass media and communication Bsc, hope the University of Pecs is the right place to study this course?
Hey, unfortunately I don’t know anything about that course in Pécs but I hope everything does work out! 🙏🏻
Hi, Cam! Which dormitory is nearest to the faculty of engineering and information technology? Im from the Philippines!
Hey, Boszorkány will be the closest but it is a small city and it’s easy to get around so if you going the dormitory route I would still recommend Szántó Dormitory as a first choice.
Hello. I'm from Honduras and I am evaluating many things before deciding which university in Hungary I will like to study my masters degree.
Awesome! I hope everything works out!
I'm from Kenya.
Thank You much for the amazing video.I am Aishwarya Sunil who have applied for Msc Biology.May I know in detail about the course and college as well as part time opportunity.Could You please help me with the same..
Hey, unfortunately I don’t think I can provide detailed information on the biology course specifically as I’m in the medical program but if you have any specific questions then send them through and I will try my best to answer them. Part-time jobs are possible to find but less so than what would be available in Budapest which is a larger city. I have seen some international students doing food delivery and helping at restaurants but I’m not entirely sure what the availability is in other sectors.
Hi Cam i hope you are well i applied to the University of pécs to study a masters degree in business development and management and leadership i would like to ask you whether these two programs have an entrance exam and what type of questions usually get asked in the entrance exam. Thank You very much
Hey, I’m not entirely sure unfortunately as I mostly interact with medical students. However, check out this link and hopefully it helps: international.pte.hu/admission/entry-requirements
Heyy,Cam!!!
I'm from Angola
I need your help to enter the university of pécs. I'm finished high school nursing, I would like some tips!!!
Hey, so sorry for the late reply. Been very busy with exams. I believe that gaining entrance into this university is very doable if you study effectively for your theoretical part of the entrance exam and then ensure that you have answers to common interview questions such as: why do you want to study this degree? Why do you want to study in Pécs? What are some of your hobbies? If you can make sure that you have confidence with all the theoretical topics to an equal degree and you have thought of the answers to those types of questions above then you can do it! Good luck!!
Hey, I got in for general medicine but I am still considering the offer :)
Hey Congratulations! What are some of your concerns?
I got accepted into general medicine in pécs! So so so excited, could you name any company that help with the payments?! I can't afford the uni costs...
Hey, big congratulations on the acceptance! I’m sorry to hear about the financial issues. I went through a company called Diákhitel and they cover my full tuition with a 0% interest loan. Unfortunately, they only cover Hungarian and EU citizens though. 💔 I’m not sure if this will change and I haven’t really heard of other alternatives within Hungary. I really hope you can figure something out!
@@CamMedLife i am a EU citzen so it suits me! How can I apply to it??
@@asu.9587 Oh perfect, then I suggest you email them for more details: info@diakhitel.hu
@@CamMedLife may I ask you how you created a student resident card?!
@@asu.9587 It is quite a tedious process because you need quite a few different documents and then you need to go to the Immigration Office. Hopefully if you lucky, it will be sorted out the first time you go but often times they seem to need some kind of additional document or changes to one of your documents and then you have to go back. The list of everything you will need to take with you should be outlined on the information package you get sent by the university. From what I remember, it was a link to their “For Future Students” tab on their website.
thanks for the information.. i'm just wandering is it possible for me to pay for two students and stay alone by myself in the room of two at the dorm or it's not possible?
Hey, I’m actually not sure. I remember there being a potential to request a room without a roommate and they would take your request into consideration but could not guarantee it as it depends on how many students have applied for the dormitory. I would say that there maybe is a chance you could organise to pay for 2 people and stay in a room alone as I got the impression that they were quite flexible but again, I can’t confirm. I would suggest sending one of the dormitories an email for more clarity
Thanks for your reply
I got admission in pecs uni in BS biotechnology ..and also got SCYP scholarship. I'm very excited but will u plz guide me what the weather is there bcz I'm coming from Pakistan 🇵🇰.
Hey, congratulations! I would describe the weather in Pécs as a city of extremes. It gets cold in the winter reaching temperatures of around -7 degrees and then it gets really hot in the summer reaching temperatures around 37 degrees. So bring clothing that covers both bases and if you don’t have a winter coat already, I advise you buy one in Europe as they tend to be better equipped for the winter. Pécs can also get a lot of rain at times during the year so a coat with a waterproof outer layer would be most ideal.
@@CamMedLife well that's so extreme for Pakistani 😅😅
Hi , there are overall 100 questions for medicine dentistry(20 chemistry and 20 biology , but what is the treshold for admission . Please tell me about it , there is not information about it.
Please , anybody , who know answer to this question
Hey, unfortunately I’m not sure what the threshold is. The Uni might decide behind the scenes each year. Just aim to do the best you can though. Even if you know the threshold, it shouldn’t really change anything. I hope that it all works out and I wish you the best of luck!
@@CamMedLife thank you , but I found on the internet , that the percentage admission is about 25%-50 , that is very big size I suppose .
I am coming this sep for my bachelor degree in university of pecs. I wanted to ask situation about part time job
Hey, I’m not entirely sure as I haven’t looked into it properly myself. I have seen some international students working in restaurants and delivering food but it is a small city and I think part-time jobs for students are more limited than Budapest for example.
Hey Cam
Do you think that 450€ per month is enough for a student without rent? Just food, internet and transportation
Thanks
Hey Bahij, you can definitely make that work. You will just need to cook your own food more rather than relying on takeaways. You could still budget for going out occasionally or getting takeaways but you will just need to monitor it.
Dr , I am from pakistan , I got acceptance from pecs uni in Physiotherapy but please also male video on work in pecs city or near ?
Hey, quite a few people have asked me this but it's not something I'm knowledgeable on unfortunately. I don't have time to work so I have never looked into it here in Pécs. All I say to people who ask is that I see international students working for food delivery apps and also at some restaurants but other than that, I'm not entirely sure. It's a small city so I don't think there is an abundance of work opportunities but I'm sure you could find something if you really looked hard enough.
Language might just be an added obstacle as well, in addition to the city being small.
Could you please say something about part time job opportunities to fund my expenses?

I have applied for stipendium scholarship and have been accepted by tge University. I'm waiting for tempus. I'm from Nigeria
Congratulations!! 🎉👏🏻
Thank you. Your video was very helpful.
Can you please tell me the actual living cost excluding dormitory?
And are dormitoris given to students without a fuss?
Or they have limited seats?
Hey, I’m glad the video could be of some help to you. It depends on how you choose to live but in comparison to the rest of Europe, Pécs is definitely very affordable. Excluding accommodation you will roughly need about 70 000 Hungarian Forints - upwards. With regards to the dormitory, I got in very easily when I came but I assume there might be some competition for places. There are quite a few dormitories to choose from though and therefore a lot of rooms. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask!
@@CamMedLife Thanks
@@-Invisble No problem, if you want to eat out a few times and order food occasionally but still cook your own meals most of the time. I would estimate somewhere between 120 000 -150 000 Forints per month.
could you please tell me about good and cheap studios in pecs , I got accepted in pecs university in economics and I'm going to move in September.
I would advise that you search: “apartments for sale in Pécs” on Facebook, you will see loads of groups and posts. I found my apartment by networking through Facebook. Sometimes the contact details of the owner are under the post and other times it is an agent which is ideal because you can then ask them if they have any other apartments that they represent.
@@CamMedLife can I know how much you pay for the dormitory every month
@@hmshms1036 I included prices of three of the dorms in the video
Hello
Please let me know for international students .the entrance exam is required? Economics
How much is summer break in university of pecs ?
Around 3 months and medical students usually have about 2 months.
I want to ask is university of Pannonia has good ranking to study???
Hey, unfortunately I don’t know anything about the University of Pannonia. So, I wouldn’t be able to give you more than a Google search could. Sorry about that!
Ok thanks for your genuine suggestion
What's the yearly tuition fees of your university and what's the average yearly expenses ???? Plz reply
Hey, the yearly tuition is just under $17 000. With regards to average yearly expenses, that is very difficult to answer. There are a lot of different variables depending on where you stay, what you eat and what activities you do. The city is really affordable though when compared to many other cities within Europe.
That's expensive for me as an indian.
I can afford around 5000 - 7000 dollars
@@supergiant563 Yeah it is a lot of money still. It is also expensive for me as a South African but I was lucky to get a loan. I wish there was something else that I could do to help…
Recently my daughter got acceptence from pécs University for bechlor in psychology for sept 2023 intake my question is that its worth for her future ? and what type of accommodation is suitable for her , she is only 17 years old now and no previous experience about international destinations please suggest me best thanks in advance 🙏
Congratulations to your daughter! It is difficult to give you a definitive answer to your question but I believe it will be worth it. I’ve said before that every university has it’s issues but the University of Pécs still has a relatively acceptable ranking. I am in the mindset that the degree will open doors for me and if new obstacles come up I will find a way around them. With regards to accommodation, I recommend that your daughter applies for Szántó dormitory through the Neptun Portal System of the University for her first semester. Since this will be her first time abroad, being in a dormitory where she can meet different people easily and also get help with all the admin stuff that she will need to do in her first semester, seems like the best option. Good luck with everything!
@@CamMedLife thanks for your support
I mean to say we have no more idea about the reputation of pécs University
What's according to you about value of it's degree certificate in open world it's good veluable or an everage please help, thanks in advance 🙏
@@vipintiwariindia8331 Hello, sorry for the late reply. I’m very busy studying for my final exams. I know that the University of Pécs is ranked between 400th and 500th in the world as of 2022 for preclinical, clinical and health sciences according to Times Higher Education World University Rankings. I’m not entirely sure if psychology is included in this but I assume that it falls into the “health sciences” bracket. This is obviously not an amazing ranking but a ranking good enough to be recognised by European Union countries.
@@CamMedLife wow thats great thing about pécs University i think we want to prepare for my daughter's admission
Thanks a lot for your support and best wishes for your exam 🙏
I have questions for you
Heey I got in, studying general medicine. Can’t afford the fees, is there any information you can help me with, concerning funding . i applied for Stipendum Hungaricum, did not get nominated.
Hey, congratulations on the acceptance. I’m sorry to hear about the issue with funding though as I’m sure it is very frustrating. I currently have a loan from a company called Diakhitel (based in Budapest) and this company pays my full tuition fee. The loan is a 0% interest loan and I start paying it back after I’m finished. Unfortunately, I believe that this loan might only be available to people who hold a European passport. I potentially misunderstood or maybe the situation has changed and I hope this turns out to be the case. So, I advise that you try get in contact with them and see if you could be eligible: info@diakhitel.hu
@@CamMedLife thank you very much
@@veronicawilliams1048 Of course, good luck with everything! Feel free to come back at anytime if you have another question.
@Cameron Shaw I just checked, not sure if I'm eligible. I have sent them an email
@@veronicawilliams1048 That is what I feared but I’m holding thumbs that they get back to you with a positive reply.
hi, thank you for this, i have a question, is there a cleaning worker for the bathroom inside the rooms or the student will clean it
Hey, there is a cleaning service once every week in the dorms so you do not need to clean the bathroom yourself.
