**Intakes and deadlines**

| Intake | Deadline | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- |
| September | Aug 15 | First (main) intake. Note: the college's own admission page has an internal date inconsistency (pairs 'apply until Aug 15, 2026' with 'academic year starts Oct 1, 2025' -- almost certainly a stale copy-paste error on their site rather than an actual Oct-2025 start). Treat as September 2026 start. |
| February | Nov 01 | Second intake window (applications open Sep 1 - Nov 1 per the college site, also carrying a similar stale-year label 'academic year starts Feb 1, 2025' -- treat as February 2026/2027 start depending on application year). English requirement: B2 overall (IELTS Academic 5.5-6.5 band accepted as equivalent); students below this level can still be admitted but must complete one semester of the Academic English Preparatory Programme (AEPP, €1700) first. Application fee: €200 (non-refundable, covers TRP document legalization). Admission interview required for all applicants. |

## About

Vilnius is Lithuania's capital — vibrant, with a thriving café and startup culture, reliable public transport, and very affordable living. Expect €500–700/month for shared housing, €650–900 total monthly if you eat out occasionally. The student population is international and young; English is widely spoken. The city feels safe, walkable, and genuinely welcoming to foreigners in a way that matters for mental health during a long degree.

## Strengths

- English-taught professional bachelor programs with strong employer recognition (ranked #1 by employers among Lithuanian colleges)
- Flexible English admission: B2-level required but can study while completing preparatory semester; multiple English test options accepted (IELTS, TOEFL, Cambridge, TOEIC, PTE)
- Affordable tuition (€3,800/year for business programs) with merit scholarships covering 100% tuition for top students; living costs low (~€600-900/month total)

## Watch out for

- College-level (higher vocational) institution, not university—degree may have limited recognition in some markets outside EU; check employer/university recognition in your target country
- Only two intakes per year (September, February); fall deadline for non-EU students is June 1; limited application windows
- Limited information available on employer partnerships and internship placement; high (90%) graduate employment claims unverified by independent sources
