- Опубліковано 12 сер 2019
- I did my semester abroad at Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok, Thailand and in this video I shared with my experience studying in Thailand and attending Chula as an exchange student. I showed you around the campus and shared my advise and thoughts on whether Chula is a good place for a semester abroad (and who in my opinion should apply for it) :)

Hi! My name is Kaja :) I grew up between Poland and Denmark, and for the past couple of years I have been living in Copenhagen, Shanghai, Bangkok and Paris, making videos about my travels, daily life and fashion. I'm currently doing a MBA degree in Luxury Brand Management in Shanghai and Paris.

Hi Kaja, (English guy here), I can so relate to everything you have expressed in this blog. I too have a long history with Bangkok. Ive lived and worked there and have a Thai step mum. Although I'm now back in London I try to head back to Bangkok each year and aim to retire there when possible. I loved the way you explained your relationship with the city and I feel very much the same. When i lived there all manner of things sadly went wrong and there some tough times. Yet that has not diminished my fascination and love of the country, city and the people. As you said time helps and you recall mostly the good times. The city, the people and the country now have such a powerful affect on my its draws me back. I seem to have something in me that drives me to try to fathom and understand the place. I want to make sense of the confusion and madness i experienced there. But anyone who truly 'gets' Thailand knows that us foreigners never really reach that total enlightenment of absolutely understanding the people and the country. Just when you feel you are getting somewhere with language and culture you realise you know nothing. It's the perpetual itch, the force that urges you to keep trying to understand everything but you never quite do. Its so funny when i watch your blogs you really remind me of the very same emotion and excitement that i also felt each day there when i worked. I feel what you did and your blogs make me smile and homesick for Bangkok. I completely relate to how you feel in your fab blogs. This video where you head back is beautiful and the happiness and nostalgia you show is wonderful and an indication of how special your time was there. I feel exactly the same. If you head to London get in contact and it would be fun to hit a Thai restaurant here and share stories. Philip
Hi Kaja, great videos by the way. I enjoy so much your videos. I was also living in bangkok for a year and I could understand really how it feels and this video mostly describing everything I ever experience. The chamchuri square, the chula shuttle, siam paragon, you do really make missing chula and bangkok so much, I exactly went to the same places as yours in this video. when at first I left for lao and feel alone and lost, I watched your video and it did cheer me up. Thank you and hope to see more of your video hopefully you'll back to bangkok and create more video there. Have a nice day!
As alumni, thank you for nice vlog and also promoted CU. I even learn new info although I studied for 4 years lol
I was in Chula 2 years ago too ! in the architecture building ! such a good memory and a big experience ! miss it ✌️
Which study have you done there? Do they do master course in architecture?
What you talked about at the end of your video really resonated with me. When I first travelled to Bkk 3.5y ago, I was overblown by the big city and didn’t like it. Also, it was the first city I travelled to on my own outside of Europe. Since then I went back a few times and like it more every time. Now, I’m looking for unis to pursue my masters (still a long way ahead of me first though) and eyeing more and more at Chula. So, always give Bkk a second chance, it deserves it in my opinion. If you feel down in the first few days, สู้ๆ, you will probably start loving it soon.
I'm almost done with my master's degree with CU now. Thanks for being so helpful during my pre-CU life days Kaja! Thanks for being a part of this journey :) cheers from a Filipino CU student :)
❤️😊🙏🏼
Can you tell me how to apply for it
I was at Chula 12 years ago as exchange program student at faculty of economics .Since that time I love Bangkok and Thailand !!!! Chula is a great University and I met there my best friend. I went back to Thailand even with the kids and now all the family loves it. Thanks Thai Students from Chula for being so welcoming and you can be very proud about your university.
I like your perspective, the simple stuff is always the one the immerse you the most. Looks great!
Alin N. 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Arhh I'm crying while watching this...Chula is my dream school...I really hope that someday I will study there..or just go there😭❤️
And sorry for my bad english.. english is not my language.. btw..I am from Malaysia😁
I just bumped into this vid as I was trying to learn how's life in Thailand cuz I'm planning to continue my studies there after I graduate here in Philippines. LOVE YOUR VLOGS!
thank you 😊 🙏🏼💕
Great video, brings back memories. Used to go to Chula often when I worked in Bangkok around 2005 - 2006. The irritating bit used to be the way the campus was plugged directly into city roads making it convenient for cars but quite unpleasant for pedestrians who need to suffer vehicular traffic in addition to the heat.
Was it hard to get in like how much GPA do I need to get in
You make me miss Chula a lot! If there were no pandemic, I'd probably be sitting in some summer classes right now. 😭
Btw, great video! Thought you were American at first. Really fluent!
glad you liked the video! :)
Great video. I am a 4th year Chula student and this is my exchange experience in Barecalona, Spain!!
This video has made me really want to visit Chulalongkorn University! It seems so great there! I'm experiencing my 'online' university in the UK and I'll graduate next year. I even think Bangkok is one good choice for me to start my next stage of life now.
ooo let me know if you do go to Chula! I'm also graduating next year and planning on doing my masters there! We should keep in contact :)
@@may.onnaise449 Wow, that's so great! I've left the UK now, though. Hope you can have a good experience there!
😍😍😍 pretty vlogger..😊
i agree with you. Thai people are amazing. i went to Thai at 2014 for volunteering project and i wish i could come back and study at Chula as well just like you. wish me luck 😍
I can see u got Thai accent 😂.
Im Thai but I want to be an International Automotive Engineering in Chula.
Thanks for review university in Thailand.
Appreciate that🙏
You remind my days in Chula, back in 2007/08, when I was a MA student at faculty of political science.
Hi Kaja, so happy that Chula gave you very best memorable experience! And a bit pity, you should explain more to how was the class interm of academic and studying environment for someone who wish to study here:)
vee Jojo yes I agree, I should have talked about it a bit more, but I found it a bit difficult because my experience with academic level of classes really depended on the class, some classes were really good and some were more average so I didn’t really know how I should sum it up
I'm very happy to watch your videos in Bangkok again. 😄😄😄
korakot vittaya 😊🙏🏼
Hey gurl! I love all your videos! Can I ask a few questions? I’m thinking to enroll in chula next year but I’m looking for the ASEAN Scholarship or the 1 semester exchange. Will I get a degree??
I’m new here and i just laughed out loud,watching you saying”Auntie Kya”
Good explanation of what its like to be at Chula. It is like the Thai Oxford, and the respect is common
Chula is one of my dream schools, I want to be exchane student there someday💕💕💕

What courses does the university offer?
There is easy to get scholarship for undergraduate students
Is it easy to secure Asean non Asean scholarship here? Or it is competative one?
Its my dream university for my daughter.anyone can please tell me the fee structure for BBA per semester

Would a´ have loved to be student at Chula. Now I have a MD from a danish university. Now it is to late.
Sis ur videos are great and useful. Could you please tell me is there any Universities in Thailand accept the distance education international students.plsss reply me
Is the medium of teaching language in eng or?
I was at Mahidol! consider one of the best university too
Hey kaja.. I'm about to continue my study at chula but for master program. But I am pretty like to wear the White Black uniform 😂.. as you said, so for the graduate student we can't wear it right? So saddd
Livia Toad Yes, Only Undergrad students need to wear uniforms.
Hi Kaja! I'm interested to exchange into faculty of psychology - CU and I'm wondering about the monthly expenses as an exchange student. Excluding room renting fees, could you survive with 10.000 baht a month (to eat, printing assignment, transportation, and other basic necessities)? or if 10.000 isn't enough, how much do you think would suffice to live a decent life as an exchange student in CU? I hope you replied to this, thank you so much 🤗
Hey, Im also Studing psychology :) Have you been to Cu?
Probably too late but Id say 10,000THB is tight. As a minimum, food would cost 100THB a day, so 3000THB. Then you have transport, which depends on where you are going to and coming from, bills (probably 1000-1500THB), and then phone, wifi, and other costs. It can be done, but 15000THB would be a lot more comfortable.
@@interstudentthailand4267 how about room renting fees?
Hej Kaja, jeg har også tænkt på om jeg skulle vælge Chula :)
maximusoptimus2000 hvad endte du med at vælge? :)
How do you see the education quality?
Nice video and the Chula campus looked great. I've watched several of your videos when you lived in Bangkok and the only thing that puzzled me is that you didn't seem to make any local friends. I personally don't see the point of living in a foreign country if you don't embrace the people and culture. You seemed to hang out with other foreign students and so you may as well have done a semester abroad in another European country! Why do it in Asia and hang out with "farangs" your entire time in Bangkok. May just be me though who thinks like this?
Very nice university in Asia and all students are from the rich family
Not necessary
Did you mention that every student at chulalongkorn university is in a famous Thai pop band or is famous in general
How much is the tuition fee in chula?
As planning full time undergraduate international student in chulalongkorn university...
What are the on campus dorms in chulalongkorn university.
Please tell
Nandlal Minz I unfortunately don’t know since I haven’t lived there
Hey I was wondering how did you plan to be a full time undergraduate international student at Chulalongkorn University? Because I am currently a high school student and I am interested in being an International student but I am very confused on the requirements?
Question! Sorry! Were the classes in English or thai?? Or both???
since I don't speak Thai all my classes were in English :) but there are ofc classes in both languages
Hey✋ is it free for the foreigners to tour around the campus??? Plsss answer my question....iwant to visit the campus......luv from Ph🇵🇭
I believe anyone can access the campus :)
Does Chula hire Foreign language professors?
Impressive.. Where are you now?
