„Being pretty young when I entered Vilnius University, I did not have a clear idea how my experience would look like. Looking back at it now, I can totally say that Vilnius University has formed me as a person, gave me a ground from which I could begin taking steps toward my dreams and, most importantly, introduced me to people and memories that will stay in my life forever.

I am very grateful for the academic as well as personal encounters that accompanied my studies and all the skills that I am able to showcase and use in the current stage of my life. If someone was to ask me if I would change anything about the decision to become a student at Vilnius University, I would have never done so. Even now, after roughly a year since graduation, I look back and have a feeling of nostalgia related to my study experience.
If a high level of education, great communication with the faculty and future opportunities are the characteristics you are looking for, Vilnius University should certainly be central to your framework of consideration. As a bonus, you will have a chance to build long-lasting connections, enjoy the international community and the experiences that come with it“

„It has been a wonderful experience to attend Vilnius University. The lecturers use real-world examples to explain complicated topics, and university staff constantly try to go out of their way to assist you in every possible manner. The classrooms are full of different cultures, and I have learned so much about different perspectives during my studies. Vilnius is a magnificent place to live, I especially recommend exploring the old town where you will always find something new while cruising through the historical alleys. My experience has been really pleasant at VU and I highly appreciate it. You will spend many memorable days here that you will cherish for a lifetime!“

Shahaan Ahmed Ansari (India), Student of the Management programme, Global business and analytics branch.

„It was my immense fortune to be a part of Vilnius University. Not only have I gained knowledge on various areas in Management, but I made friends from all around the world. I also established my leadership qualities, problem-solving and communication skills. I would like to express my utmost gratitude to the faculty for their efforts that helped me gain knowledge to become a better professional, as well as for their guidance and support in finding my passions. Even though Lithuania is a relatively small country, it is blooming with opportunities to grow. It can be said without a shadow of a doubt that you will always find interesting things to do while studying here. All in all, it was a life-changing experience that made my life infinitely better.“
