Slovak Language Courses for University Admission
If you want to save on higher education costs, consider learning Slovak. Let's compare the costs of studying in English with an intensive Slovak language course at iCan School, which will prepare you to study in Slovak for free in 10 months.
Studies in English costs approximately €2,000 per year, totaling around €6,000 over three years.
An intensive Slovak language course at iCan School costs €4,000 for 10 months.
The savings are clear: €6,000 - €4,000 = €2,000.
Thus, over three years, your total expenses would be €4,000 for intensive Slovak language training instead of €6,000 for studying in English. This cost-effective option allows you to save €2,000 by choosing to study in Slovak.
