Note for Students from Non-EU Countries
You will receive a Letter of Acceptance in the Czech language from us, which you must submit as part of your application for a student visa. Since it may take up to 60 days to process your visa application from the first visit to the Embassy (for more information, please get in touch with the Czech embassy nearest you), application forms should be sent to UCT Prague at least one month before the application deadline.
UCT Prague can only issue a Letter of Acceptance after signing Learning Agreement.
Information regarding the visa process can be found here:
- short-term (Schengen) visa ⇒you are staying under 90 days
- long-term visa ⇒ you are staying more than 90 days in the Czech republic
Starting and finishing the traineeship
Once you are accepted for a traineeship, it is only possible to cancel the traineeship in exceptional cases (good reason should be provided, it has to be announced enough time in advance). This is because our laboratories are reserving the place for you (other applicants might be rejected, reservations for instruments are done, coworkers are registered for you etc.) which makes it very complicated for us to cancel the planned traineeships at the last minute.
Traineeships can start at any time during the academic year, based on the agreement between you and your UCT supervisor.
The trainees should visit the Department of International Relations after their arrival and before their departure (earliest 3 days before departure).
