University of New York in Prague - UNYP (reviews)

I liked the approach UNYP has towards students. Professors are knowledgeable and always willing to help. The student council is always organising different activities for students, which really brings the student community together 🙂 i can only recommend UNYP

I have been at this university for going on 6 years now. I must say that the experience has been overall pretty good.

The courses are a great wide range of topics that will take you through your degree. I actually did two degrees so I have experience in the Psychology and Business paths. I am also doing a master’s program in Psychology as we speak. I would say most professors are knowledgeable in their fields and are willing to put in the effort to help you learn. There are lots of opportunities for more hands-on learning experiences and group work, which is nice. I would say most classes are strict but fair. If you give effort and pay attention, you will do well.

The campus, while small, continues to grow. In my six years here, they have added a student lounge, moved the student lounge to a much bigger space, added a new floor for classes, and are working on adding another. They continue to update the facilities and capabilities over time, which is nice to see.

Students are encouraged to take part in events, foster communities, and start clubs. There are some clubs that come and go as demand shifts but it is always an avenue for students to pursue. Additionally, the university hosts a diverse cast of students from all over the world and it is likely you will meet someone that is also from your home country if you look for them.

The location is really nice and there are lots of places for students to spend time after classes such as cafes, fast food, and bars. The university has its own cafe as well.

My only negative comments are mostly directed at the administrative offices as their handling of communication of details are subpar. I would definitely solidify everything with them down to the letter before signing any contracts. Be sure what is said is also confirmed in writing to prevent miscommunication down the line. Otherwise, its fine, you dont spend much time in those offices anyways. Any other negativities I have of the university can be found in every university as well, such as a few unpopular teachers, etc, but its not anything to mark it down.

In short, its a good university with a lot to offer. If you want to study abroad. Prague is very beautiful with a fascinating history that should be better known in the world. If you wish to come to the Czech Republic, UNYP is a great choice. Teachers will put in effort for you to get the education you need and the quality of the facilities is modern and up to date.

I’m a business administration student at UNYP. What do I like about UNYP? Well, first of all I want to mention the small class size. It’s nothing like huge lecture halls where you just listen passively or fall asleep in the back row. Smaller classes mean more interaction and more attention from professors. You’re not just a listener but you’re an active participant in discussions. You can ask questions at any moment, and you know the professor will take the time to answer and help you understand. I also love the flexibility in building your own schedule. Knowing your own strengths, habits, and workload, you can plan your semester in a way that works best personally for you. On top of that, there are many electives to choose from just because you’re genuinely interested in the subject area. The whole system feels open and democratic, American style
Throughout my studies I met many professors with whom I built friendly, supportive relationships. They were always ready to help; if a student struggled with a topic, professors were open to meeting on campus to go through the material together. Over the years, I’ve done everything from group projects and presentations to debates and even small performances. It has been a genuinely engaging, memorable, fun experience
And the last thing I want to mention is that staff is very supportive: from the beginning till the end.

A place with a particularly helpful approach to learning, which is based more so on individualistic expression and a back-and-forth dialogue as opposed to simply listening/learning/repeating. Also, it is one the best places for international education that will truly prepare students for a career that transcends borders.

I’ve been at UNYP for two semesters, and by far the best part about it has to be the quality of my professors. I am in the international relations program, and I am glad to be taught by genuine experts in their fields who have hands-on experience in the subjects they teach. Sure, UNYP isn’t the biggest uni, and it has its fall-backs here & there, but I think the education it offers, networking opportunities, exposure to other cultures, and such outweigh the negatives.

I’m a Business Administration student at UNYP, and I chose this university because of its dual-degree program. I really like the American-style approach to education – smaller classes make it easy to get to know other students, the projects are engaging, and the professors know and support their students.

The professors are knowledgeable, approachable, and genuinely supportive. They encourage us to reach out with questions and are often willing to schedule extra sessions to review material before exams. We frequently work on group projects, which help us gain a deeper understanding of the subjects we study.

In addition, there’re many clubs and activities that make it easy to connect with others, make friends, and find your community.

As a freshman at UNYP, I really appreciate the way the university teachers approach students—they are approachable, supportive, and genuinely engaged in our learning. The building is modern and conveniently located in the city, which makes attending classes enjoyable. The classes themselves are attentive and interesting, making it a great environment to start my university journey.

All of the classes and professors are truly amazing, making the learning experience both engaging and supportive. The building itself is also wonderful, offering not only modern classrooms but also a variety of spaces where students can interact, collaborate, or simply take a quiet moment for themselves. It creates a welcoming environment that encourages both academic growth and personal well-being.

I like that it is an American program in Europe for a good price, especially if you have a scholarship. I also wanted to study in english and not too far from home. I love that I met many amazing new friends from all over the word. The teachers are quite good and I can choose my own subjects and teachers and times. Teh only disadvabtage is that the 15 week semester can be quite intense and there tends to be a lot of reading involved. I also think some people are complaining of the way some things gs are handled when it comes to error and stuff, but this can happen anywhere and it doesn’t happen often.
