Why Vilnius University?
I chose VU MF because of all the wonderful opportunities this university has to offer. The Integrated program itself is unique in comparison to all others. The professors are wonderful and are available to answer all your questions and concerns. The city of Vilnius is vibrant and welcoming with a growing number of people visiting and touring the area daily. Most importantly it is a safe environment, constantly thriving and booming. Whether you choose to do some studying in the national library during the daytime or just looking to enjoy the nightlife in Vilniaus gatve, all these experiences and more are worth exploring.
