FAQ

What is the best time to contact you?

How long does the process of obtaining a student visa for the USA take?

The process of obtaining a visa to the USA is influenced by the availability of appointments at the U.S. Embassy. On average, visa processing times range from two weeks to one month; however, we are unable to influence this timeframe. Nevertheless, we will assist you with document preparation and guide you through the entire process to simplify obtaining your visa as much as possible.

What is the difference between athletic and academic scholarships in the USA, and what criteria must I meet?

An athletic scholarship is awarded to athletes based on their abilities and performances in a specific sport. It should finance sports-related expenses and may also cover a portion of tuition. Maintaining the scholarship often requires maintaining adequate academic performance alongside maintaining a high level of athletic achievement.

In contrast, an academic scholarship is solely based on a student's academic performance and helps with expenses related to studies, such as tuition, books, and accommodation. The student must maintain a high level of academic performance to retain the scholarship.

Both forms of scholarships provide significant financial support to students and enable them to focus on their athletic or academic goals.

What are the typical costs associated with studying abroad and how can I obtain financial assistance or a scholarship?

The costs associated with studying abroad can vary significantly depending on the destination, type of school, and other factors. Typical expenses (tuition, accommodation, meals, books and materials, health insurance, or travel) are generally higher than in the Czech Republic and without a scholarship, can be even tens of thousands of dollars.

Financial aid and scholarships are important resources for students studying abroad. Academic scholarships are based on a student's high academic achievements and may be offered by universities based on the academic profile and results achieved.

On the other hand, athletic scholarships are awarded to athletes based on their performances in a specific sport. These forms of aid may cover part of the tuition or sports-related expenses, and maintaining the scholarship may require maintaining a high level of athletic performance.

Additionally, external financial assistance can be sought through scholarships, grants, and foundations that support studying abroad. Some universities also offer their own scholarships or financial aid for international students.

The average amount of athletic scholarship in the USA varies by sport and division. In Division I, the average athletic scholarship is approximately $14,270 per year for men and $15,162 per year for women. In Division II, the average amounts are lower, approximately $5,548 for men and $6,814 for women.

How does the process of selecting a suitable university or program abroad works and what are the criteria?

The process of selecting a suitable university or program abroad begins with identifying your own goals and interests regarding studies. Academic costs, admission criteria, and support for international students also play a significant role.

We always recommend considering the location and requirements for language and comparative tests' results. Additional selection criteria may include the school's reputation, offered fields of study, the student's financial capabilities, and conditions for international students.

We are happy to advise you throughout the entire process and recommend all possible options.
