Due to the recent economic crisis, more Filipinos are deciding to leave Greece for good and return to their homeland. Getting into a good public university in Greece can be tough especially to those who studied in Filipino and English schools and even to graduates of public greek high schools. Being educated in a greek school does not guarantee an automatic entry in greek public universities. There are private colleges in Greece that offer programs validated by Universities abroad, mostly from U.K. and America. These can be a good option for non-greek speakers or to those who were not accepted in public universities. But private colleges in Greece are costly and the greek educational system does not allow private institutions to be called universities and does not recognize the certificates they issue to graduates as equal to degrees given by Greek state universities. It is not practical to enroll in colleges that will not be recognized by the government and have the risk of closure in the middle of the school year.
Education is an investment that requires planning. It is important to choose the right college and universities by visiting their respective premises and gathering information about the program that they offer. It is also important to consider the performance of the school in relation to your chosen course.
