The fair brought together a selection of Hungarian universities in one location, providing high school students and their families with the opportunity to ask questions and explore their higher education options. Over the course of the six-hour event, more than thirty students and parents visited the Corvinus stand. Many were curious to learn about our English-taught programmes, mobility opportunities, student clubs, and the wider campus experience. 

Our colleagues also took the time to explain the application process step by step, showing prospective students how Corvinus supports them at every stage – from initial inquiries to admission and life at the university. The personal conversations allowed Csilla and Serena to highlight what makes Corvinus unique: an international outlook, strong academic foundations, and a vibrant student community. 

“It was encouraging to meet so many enthusiastic and motivated students who clearly value their education and want to make informed decisions about their future,” they said afterwards. “We were also glad to speak with representatives from a few international high schools in Hungary, who expressed interest in sharing more about Corvinus with their students.” 

Beyond the useful information exchange, the event created a positive and open atmosphere, where both students and parents felt comfortable asking questions and exploring possibilities. Many of the visitors already had a very positive impression of Corvinus, and the conversations at the fair confirmed and deepened their interest. 

We would like to extend our thanks to Rita Jakó, Regional Admissions Manager for Central Europe at Sommet Education, for the kind invitation and excellent organisation of this fair. Events like these are invaluable for building connections with future students and helping them imagine themselves as part of the Corvinus community.
