Language Requirements

The official and national language of Greece is Greek.

There are an increasing amount of degree programmes being offered in the English language, mainly at postgraduate level. At undergraduate level, Greek is the normal teaching language. If you choose to study in a non-native language, you will likely have to provide evidence of your proficiency. If you do not meet the required standards, it is common for institutions to offer language courses to help you improve.

Even if you are able to study in English, you should make an effort to learn as much Greek language as you can. Communicating with the locals and other students is the perfect way to practice. This is a skill that will look great on your CV/resume!
