How to apply

Please fill in the online application form on our website by May 13th 2024 at the latest.

After receiving your completed application form, the programme coordinator will inform you about the current state of the application process and ask you to send the following documents:

1.     Your Curriculum Vitae (CV) (in English)

2.     A short motivation letter

3.     A document proving your enrolment in a college or university or your recent graduation (for example a confirmation letter/form issued by your university, or copies of relevant diplomas and transcripts. A scan or photo of a document is sufficient. It may be submitted in the language in which it was originally issued. If we need a translation, we will ask for it.)

4.     Proof of your knowledge of English (if you are not a native speaker). We require at least the B2 level of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. You will be asked to send us either a copy of a language exam certificate or an official confirmation that you have passed a university course in English or some other course in English at the required level. In case you are studying or have studied in an academic programme taught entirely in English, a document proving your enrolment or graduation will be considered as proof of your knowledge of English.

Selected participants will be notified. Preliminarily admitted students will be asked to confirm their attendance and pay the programme fee as soon as possible.

Decisions on admission:

Decisions on admission will be made on a rolling basis according to the rounds of review described below.

Applications will be reviewed continuously during the application period.

Do not hesitate to apply immediately! Earlier applications have a better chance of admission. The later the review, the fewer places there are to offer. The programme coordinator can inform you about exact dates and deadlines and also about the current number of remaining places.

Students who are not successful in earlier rounds of review still have a chance to be admitted. Their applications will be automatically reviewed again in the next rounds, together with any newly received applications.

Course Cancellation Policy:

If you wish to cancel your participation in the Summer University, 90% of your application fee will be refunded if written notification of your intention to cancel is received before the deadline of July 1st 2024. After that date, if you need to cancel your confirmed participation, please email summer.university@fsv.cuni.cz with the reason for your cancellation. Refunds will be issued in the original payment method used. Registration for the Summer University cannot be transferred to another student, but it may be accepted for another, future course for the same student.
