The courses are designed for foreign students, specialists (teachers, translators, interpreters) and academics in the field of Czech studies and Slavonic studies who are over 18 years old. However, they are open to all those interested in the Czech language, literature, history, and culture.

Applications sent directly to the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports of the Czech Republic (MEYS) or directly to the Summer Schools will not be processed!

Selection of candidates for scholarship awards

The institutions receiving scholarship application and performing the selection proceedings recommend: i) regular nominees, and ii) substitutes (up to twice as many as regular nominees), and deliver their nomination to the MEYS by 31 March 2023 at the latest.

Successful candidates will be contacted directly by the organizer of the respective Summer School.

Each successful candidate is obliged to confirm his/her participation promptly to the organizer of the Summer School concerned. If any candidate is unable to attend the Summer School, he/she is requested to immediately inform the MEYS (contact email: Magdalena.VillatoroSladkova@msmt_cz) and the contact person at the relevant Summer School. 

The MEYS reserves the right to place any candidate at a different Summer School than the one mentioned as the first choice in his/her application.

Resignation/withdrawal of application 

If any of the officially nominated and admitted SSSS participants is unable to attend the course due to unforeseen reasons, he/she is obliged to immediately inform the Department of International Relations of the MEYS, using the e-mail address Magdalena.VillatoroSladkova@msmt_cz, as well as the relevant Summer School so that a substitute candidate can be contacted soon enough.

If the scholarship quota (regular nominees and substitutes) provided to any given partner country at one of the organizing schools is not utilized, it is possible to offer such free slots to candidates from another partner country.

Health insurance

Health insurance is NOT included in the scholarship. It is strongly recommended that successful candidates arrange their travel health insurance for their entire stay in the Czech Republic. More information can be provided by the Czech Embassy in the candidate's country of stay or origin.

Medical care for EU/EEA citizens who are properly insured in their home countries is provided in compliance with the European Parliament and Council (EC) Regulation No. 883/2004, as last amended, and its implementing Regulation No. 987/2009, as amended by Regulation No. 465/2012 - detailed information is available on the website of the Health Insurance Bureau.

Please note that the expenses for repatriation are not covered by the provisions of the aforementioned European Regulations, and it is therefore advisable to obtain an insurance policy to this end even if you come from an EU/EEA country. 

Neither the MEYS nor the universities organizing the SSSS bear any responsibility or liability for any health care costs or repatriation costs that may be incurred by the scholarship-holders during their visit or as a result of their visit to the Czech Republic.

Visas

Detailed information on the regulations governing the entry and residence on the territory of the Czech Republic is available on the website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and also on the websites of the relevant Embassies of the Czech Republic.

It is recommended that both regular nominees and substitutes from non-EU/EEA countries apply for their visas well in advance.
