Study in Hungary

Why Hungary?

Hungary is rapidly emerging as the top choice for Bangladeshi students seeking affordable European education with a Schengen Visa. Unlike high-cost destinations, Hungarian universities offer world-class degrees in English at a fraction of the price found in the UK or Canada. The country’s strategic location in the heart of Europe allows you to travel freely across 27+ Schengen countries, opening doors to global career opportunities in Germany, France, and beyond. Additionally, Hungary offers a safe, welcoming environment with low living costs, making it the most economical choice for students from Dhaka, Chattogram, Rajshahi, Khulna, Barisal and Sylhet. With the prestigious Stipendium Hungaricum scholarship and a straightforward visa process, Hungary is the perfect gateway to your European dream. At Edumax Consultancy, we provide expert guidance for your file processing to ensure a high visa success rate from Bangladesh.

Admission Requirements

  • Academic Qualifications: Students who do not meet the direct entry requirements for a Bachelor’s degree can apply for a Foundation or Preparatory Program. You typically need a passed SSC & HSC result.

  • English Proficiency: IELTS is not mandatory for foundation programs. A basic understanding of English is sufficient as these courses include language training.

  • Pathway to Europe: Successfully completing a 1-year diploma/foundation course guarantees you admission into a public Hungarian university for your main degree.

  • Academic Qualifications: You need a completed HSC (Higher Secondary Certificate) or A-Levels. A minimum GPA of 3.0 to 3.5 is generally required for public universities.

  • No IELTS Option: Many Hungarian universities accept a Medium of Instruction (MOI) certificate. If your college taught you in English, you do not need IELTS. Otherwise, an IELTS score of 5.5 is standard.

  • Entrance Interview: Instead of a strict exam, many universities conduct a short online interview (via Skype/Zoom) to test your communication skills and motivation.

  • Academic Qualifications: A 4-year Bachelor’s degree from a recognized Bangladeshi university is required. A minimum CGPA of 2.75 is usually accepted.

  • Study Gap Accepted: Hungary is very flexible. Study gaps of up to 5-8 years are often accepted if you can show valid work experience certificates.

  • Language Requirements: IELTS 6.0 is preferred, but many universities waive this if you graduated from an English-medium university in Bangladesh (e.g., BRAC, NSU, AIUB) and submit an MOI certificate.

Job Opportunity

Part time jobs in Hungary for Bangladeshi Students

Mention Eligible two options

1. Part-Time Jobs (30 Hours/Week): Hungary offers one of the most generous work policies in Europe. As an international student, you are legally allowed to work 30 hours per week during your semester (unlike the standard 20 hours in other countries). During summer breaks, you can work full-time (66 working days).

  • Popular Jobs: Many Bangladeshi students earn their living costs by working in food delivery (Wolt, Foodpanda), customer support call centers, or English tutoring in Budapest.

2. 9-Month “Study-to-Work” Visa: After graduation, you don’t need to leave immediately! You can apply for a “Study-to-Work” residence permit, which allows you to stay in Hungary for 9 extra months to find a job or start a business.

  • Schengen Career: Since Hungary is a Schengen country, this visa gives you time to secure a career not just in Budapest, but potentially network across Germany, Austria, and the EU.
