## About

Alytus is a small Lithuanian town on the Nemunas River—quiet, green, with a local student culture that's genuine and unstaged. Living costs are minimal: €80–100/month for a room, €2 for lunch. The pace is slow; you study, you walk, you meet classmates in one of three student bars.

## Strengths

- Lithuania is an EU and Schengen member, giving graduates freedom of movement and an EU-recognised diploma.
- Tuition is approximately €2,600 per year, among the lowest for English-taught programmes in the EU.
- The IELTS threshold is 5.5, accessible for most CIS applicants without intensive English preparation.
- Living costs in Alytus are around €215 per month, significantly below Western European student cities.
- Students on a Lithuanian residence permit may work up to 20 hours per week during term without a separate work permit.
- Five English-taught programmes were offered including Nursing, IT, Business Management, and Transport Logistics.

## Watch out for

- The institution merged into Kauno kolegija in July 2024 — current programme list and admission procedures must be re-verified.
- Scholarships and financial aid are not documented; students should not count on them without direct confirmation.
- Alytus is a small city with limited student infrastructure, internship opportunities, and international community.
- Dormitory availability is unconfirmed post-merger; students may need to arrange private housing independently.
- Applicants without EU/EEA citizenship or a Lithuanian residence permit have the diploma recognised by the institution itself, not by SKVC — the route and its timeline must be confirmed with the college before applying.
