Hi. I am new to this site and i am thinking about transferring into the second year of charles university in 2006. Is there anyone here that is doing the same or is there anyone that has taken the entrance exam for transfer before? I would like to have an idea on how the transfer exams are set up and what they expect of us or what we'd be examined on cos according to the site and program administrator, there is no info yet on transfer requirements. All i have done is fill the application form. Presently i am in Hungary. Thanks.

it is getting progressively more difficult to transfer into charles. basically, what happens is you contact the office, apply with your transcripts and have a meeting with the dean. he decides if to let you in, and if so, at which level. to be frank, most people don't get a lot of credit for coursework done outside of the czech republic.

contact the school, and they will let you know how to do it. unfortunately, they are not ever very excited about transfer students. the whole process could be rather slow, so get started asap.

good luck!

Thanks Neilc. I have been keeping in touch with Ticha, Zuzanna. She told me to fill the application form which i did and i sent my transcript as well. As for transfer requirements, i realized that that was somewhat undecided cos she gave me a link that said that requirements for transfer were unavailable at the moment. I dont know anything about the exams and that is 1 of my major concerns. I didnt know that i will still have to go through the dean. I hope it works out 4 me. I hope i am not wasting time expecting Zuzanna s email.
Thanks for the info.
