 " Some of the departments are great, others not so much. There is a lot of old teachers, some of them are awesome and keep up with current trends but some are stuck in the '80s honestly. There are many filler subjects that don't give you anything new. Of course this is not generally applicable, there were some really nice and practical courses, too.
However, the facilities are not great at all. Most of the buildings don't have benches to sit on and desks to work at, the Wifi does NOT cover the entire campus and it is full of blind spots. In the libraries you cannot take your own bag, even if you have 4-5 books and tons of electronics with you, you have to pack them all in the tote bag they provide which is an annoyment and a waste of time.
The canteens are overpriced for a student budget, and the cheaper one is low quality as well.

The administration is horrible and you feel like you are in 2003, having to hand in everything on paper, photocopy, scan, reprint, sign, rescan, queue up for hours and repeat till you go insane... 

The dormitories are very cheap but also in terrible condition, many would prefer a BIT more for a better place of living as affording a rented flat in this city is incredibly hard unless you work a lot on the side... 

Overall whether I recommend this university (more precisely, the Faculty of Humanities of ELTE) would depend on the department you choose. Scandinavic studies - hell yea. Slavonic studies - hell no.
Only good thing is that you have a crazy wide variety of foreign languages+their philology you can study. "

 " ELTE is one of the best universities in the country. Budapest is an amazing city. There are several options when it comes to selecting courses. All in all, I would recommend this university for other students. "

 " I am satisfied with the Department of American Studies for that they provide an excellent 2 year MA training. Now I am doing my Ph.D.studies at the same faculty and I am looking foward to teach classes at the same department. "

 " Overall, the Eotvos Lorand University is not bad, but there are definitely areas for improvement, especially concerning the available facilities and resources for international students. Studying at my program was a bit challenging, but not because of the difficulty of the program, but rather because of existent administrative and organizational issues. "

 " It was a good experience.. I found a lot of knowledge and really liked the library at ELTE. The teachers were kind, the education felt traditional, and there wasn't too much pressure during exams. I also felt supported. I definitely recommend this university, though I only studied for one semester so far, so my perspective may not be fully comprehensive. "
