Greece is a rather unknown destination for a semester abroad, but the country has a lot to offer, for example in terms of expenses: Students from a country that accepts Greek exchange students do no pay either admission or tuition fees. There are hardly any bureaucratic barriers, and the credits students earn during their stay are usually incorporated into normal academic course work. This is made possible thanks to the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS). Students do, however, have to demonstrate sufficient language skills when they apply, since most lectures are held in Greek. The majority of schools and universities are located in the Athens / Piraeus region. The climate here is Mediterranean and people are considered warm and welcoming. International students will not have any difficulty in integrating themselves into the culture, and friends will be easily made.
