## About

Vilnius wraps you in layer upon layer—medieval gates, Soviet apartment blocks, modern cafés with flat whites, bookstores stacked to the ceiling. It's small enough to know everyone's favorite bar within a month, large enough to feel genuinely urban. Rent for students hovers around €120–150/month.

- Lithuania is an EU/Schengen member — graduates obtain an EU-recognised diploma.
- Students can work up to 20 h/week during term without a separate work permit.
- Vilnius is a compact, safe capital city with a large international student community.
- Interdisciplinary coverage — business, law, IT, design, and social sciences under one roof.

- Specific program names, deadlines, and scholarship amounts are not yet documented — requires direct verification.
- Dormitory availability is unconfirmed; private rentals in Vilnius average €250–600/month, adding to total costs.
