Study in Split

Located in the warmest part of the Mediterranean, Split bathes in more than 2,700 hours of sunshine per year and is extremely attractive to both backpackers and holidaymakers. The town’s history dates back 1,700 years when it was chosen by the Roman emperor Diocletian as the location for his resort palace. Nowadays, with a plethora of pebble beaches and cultural events, Split provides a perfect setting for tourism and hospitality courses. The University of Split also offers medicine and computer science degree programmes in English.

Due to its reputation as an intraregional transport hub and popular tourist destination, the city has a higher average living cost than the capital.

In addition, you should budget a minimum of €300 per month for food, transportations and other expenses.

The nightlife in Split is vibrant both in and off-season. Open-air concerts, festivals, bars and restaurants, there is no shortage of outdoor activities in the city.
