CY campus
A rural campus is the best choice for those who enjoy outdoor activities. CY has exactly this type of campus. It is located away from the city, creating conditions for greater student communication and a close-knit community. During the period of study, students can use the university library, where they can do homework and write scientific papers. CY regularly accepts students for international exchange programs, providing both local and international students with the opportunity to come into contact with different cultures and gain unique experience.
If you want to stay in Cyprus after graduation, one of your options is to apply for a work visa. To do this, you need to get an offer from an employer. You can find other options for immigration in our article.
