University of Pécs Medical School - Admissions

Laeticia Zelda Tchangom N.

“Coming to Pécs was a bit frightening for me because I wasn't sure what to really expect. My apprehension of being in a new place was so immense that for my first week in class; I literally asked a family friend who moved here 2 years before me, to attend some lectures with me. You won't believe how amazed I was to immediately fit in and feel at home because the students are lovely and we got along pretty fast. The staff here is very welcoming and subservient. The lecturers care whether you understand their teaching or not and put everything in place to help you in that regards. Everything is implemented for one to find their way around the university, with studies and all you definitely need. And one more thing: Landlords and local vendors are remarkably sympathetic and comprehensive.”
