Prague Ranked the Best Student City in Europe for 2024

Prague has officially been crowned as the best student city in Europe for 2024, outshining major cities like London, Paris, and Berlin. According to a comprehensive survey conducted by The Campus Advisor, which gathered input from over 17,000 students, Prague secured the top spot with an impressive overall score of 87.3 out of 100.

What Makes Prague Stand Out?

Students rated Prague highly across multiple categories, making it a standout city for both local and international students. Here are some key factors that contributed to its top ranking:

  • Academic Environment: Prague is home to over 45 universities, offering a diverse and robust academic atmosphere that attracts students from all over the world.
  • Student Friendliness: The city scored exceptionally well for its welcoming and supportive environment, providing students with a sense of belonging and community.
  • Affordability: While Prague isn’t the cheapest student city in Europe, it still ranks well in terms of affordability compared to other major European capitals like Paris and London ​(Euro Weekly News)​(Expats.cz).
  • Nightlife: Known for its vibrant nightlife, Prague ranked second in this category, just behind Newcastle. Students enjoy a mix of affordable entertainment options ranging from clubs and bars to cultural events ​(Radio Prague International)​(Expats.cz).
  • Safety and Public Transport: Prague also performed well in safety and public transport, securing top spots in both categories. Students appreciate the ease of getting around the city, with its efficient and affordable public transport system​(Expats.cz)​(Study in Czechia | Study in Czechia).

A Diverse Cultural Experience

Beyond its academic and practical advantages, Prague offers a rich cultural experience. From historic architecture to a variety of modern amenities like parks, museums, and restaurants, students never run out of things to explore. While it didn’t top the rankings for cultural diversity, the city’s blend of tradition and modernity provides a unique experience​(dailynewshungary.com).
