Türkiye → Lithuania · Study, settle, start

Admission is only half of it. Choose, apply, arrive, settle.

More than university admission. Helping Turkish students choose a programme, apply, and settle into their first months in Lithuania — with local support that continues long after they land.

Who this is for

Two sides of the same work

For a student, not being alone here. For a university, knowing that the students it admits still have someone beside them once they arrive.

For students and parents

Choose, apply, arrive, settle

One continuous process with one person — from university and programme choice to the application file, housing and the shape of your first semester.

  • A realistic university and programme list
  • Application and document tracking
  • Accommodation search, verified in person
  • Moving in and settling the first days
  • Guidance on residence permit and bank steps
For universities

Turkish market access and local student support

Student guidance from Türkiye, plus practical support for those students once they reach Lithuania. I work independently and am not an official representative of any university.

  • Turkish student access and pre-screening
  • Programme guidance and application support
  • Arrival, pickup and accommodation assistance
  • Local support through settlement
  • Student communication and reporting back

The hard part

You're not just applying to a university. You're moving to a new country.

For students coming from Türkiye, the difficult part usually begins after the admission letter arrives. Admission is the start of the process, not the end of it.

  • Where will I live?
  • Who will pick me up?
  • How do I get a SIM card?
  • How does public transport work?
  • What documents do I need?
  • How do I get settled?
  • What happens in my first week?
  • Who do I call if something goes wrong?

That's where local support matters.

Who you're working with

Not a distant agency — one person living in Vilnius

The person you speak to, the person who views your flat and the person who meets you at the airport are the same. The whole service is run by one person: that's both its advantage and its limit.

What I do

Before arrival and after arrival — one continuous process

The service splits into two stages: the preparation done while you are still in Türkiye, and the settlement period after you land. The same person handles both.

Before Arrival

Stage 1
  • University & programme guidance

    Working through schools and programmes that fit your profile, budget and goal.

  • Application support

    Tracking each step, checking the file is complete, putting every deadline on a calendar.

  • Document checklist

    Which document comes from where, in what order, and with which translation or certification.

  • Accommodation search

    Dorm and rental options researched against your campus and budget, checked in person where possible.

  • Pre-arrival planning

    Flight timing, a plan for the first week, and what to bring with you.

After Arrival

Stage 2
  • Airport pickup

    Met at Vilnius Airport and taken to your accommodation.

  • Accommodation check-in

    Keys, reading the contract together, recording the condition of the flat.

  • Local orientation

    Shops, transport, campus, pharmacy — where things are in your first days.

  • SIM & connectivity

    Going through mobile and internet options and getting you connected.

  • Administrative guidance

    Residence permit, bank account and municipal registration — guidance and company at appointments.

  • University orientation

    Enrolment day, student card, course system and your first steps on campus.

Why Lithuania

A compact EU country with English-taught degrees

Lithuania deserves an honest description: it isn't the right choice for every student, but for a particular profile it makes real sense.

EU

European Union member

Lithuania is part of the EU and the Schengen area, so your studies sit within a European framework.

EN

English-taught programmes

Many bachelor's and master's programmes are taught in English; Lithuanian is not a requirement for them.

Compact country

Vilnius, Kaunas and Klaipėda are close together, and city transport is manageable on a student budget.

Technology and engineering

A developed IT, engineering and fintech scene, which matters for internships.

Health sciences

Established, internationally open programmes in medicine, dentistry and veterinary medicine.

International environment

Multinational campuses, and English is widely spoken in everyday student life.

European higher education area

Degrees are issued within the Bologna framework. Recognition in Türkiye is a separate process and should be checked before applying.

Accessible within Europe

Direct flights from Vilnius to many European cities make travel between terms straightforward.

Important

Admission requirements, tuition fees and residence requirements vary by university and by programme. Lithuania is not the "cheapest", "easiest" or "guaranteed" option. We verify the requirements of the programme you're interested in on the university's own official page.

Universities

Universities students may consider

I am not an official representative of any of these institutions. This list covers universities that run English-taught programmes and that Turkish students ask about most often.

Vilnius

Vilnius University

Lithuania's oldest and broadest university, founded in 1579. It runs English-taught programmes across medicine, computing, law, business and the humanities.

For parents

Knowing that someone is there

Sending your child to a country they don't know is the hardest item on the list. What this service offers a parent is simple: a Turkish-speaking contact in Lithuania you can actually reach.

Not alone on the first day

Your child is met, reaches their address safely, and you are told once they have.

Accommodation seen in person

Housing isn't picked from a listing and left at that; it is checked on site where possible.

Kept informed

You are updated at the milestones that matter — enrolment, the residence permit application, moving in.

Direct communication

You can reach me directly by phone or WhatsApp whenever you need to.

When you need something, you can reach me directly — phone and WhatsApp are always open. This is not guardianship or medical care; what it offers is a real, reachable point of contact in Lithuania for practical matters.

Your money

What you should see before paying anything

Paying someone you haven't met, in a country you don't know, is the most fragile part of this. The answer isn't reassurance — it's a structure you can inspect.

  • A written agreement

    Scope, duration, cancellation and refund terms are in writing before anything begins. I don't work on verbal promises.

  • Half is not taken until you arrive

    The second half of the fee is paid after you land in Lithuania. It isn't requested before you get here.

  • Bank transfer, with a document

    Payment goes through a bank and is documented. I don't accept cash.

  • Third-party costs stay yours

    Tuition, rent and deposits are paid directly to the university or landlord, never into my account.

  • The consultation is free and non-binding

    Payment only comes up once you've seen the scope.

  • No charge for work not done

    If you withdraw, the refund terms are written into the agreement and read through together beforehand.

Next step: a free 30-minute consultation

Tell me your situation and we'll go through realistic options. The consultation is free and commits you to nothing.
