Great University Experience!

I studied at UNYP and overall had a very positive experience. What I appreciated most was the international environment, smaller classes, and the chance to interact directly with professors instead of feeling like just another student in a huge lecture hall. The university has a practical, English-speaking atmosphere, and it is a good fit for students who want an American-style education in the center of Prague. I also liked that many classes encouraged discussion, presentations, and real examples rather than only theory. Of course, like at any university, some administrative processes can take time and the experience may depend on the program and professors you choose. But from a student perspective, UNYP gave me useful academic experience, international connections, and a lot of personal growth. I would recommend it to students who want a smaller, international university environment in Prague and are ready to be active in their studies.

Lots of memorizing, less thinking

At this university, you need to memorize tons of information - most of it you will never ever use + you will forget it right after the exam. Students are not encouraged to use their brains and to come up with their own solutions, but to just absorb the information the teacher gives them. I got As and Bs but haven't learn almost anything.

Quality and experience!

I can say I am completely different from before and after AAU. At some point I wondered but now without even noticing I can see my knowledge has improved a lot. I say seamless because it is not the traditional type of learning, you learn through hands on projects, in class discussions, real world scenarios, interactive sessions and becomes part of your day to day life and interests. I 100% Recommend AAU to anyone who wants to experience a life-long a real international community and learn in the process while having the time of your life in Europe!
