What to check
- The institution merged into Kauno kolegija in July 2024 — current programme list and admission procedures must be re-verified.
- Scholarships and financial aid are not documented; students should not count on them without direct confirmation.
- Alytus is a small city with limited student infrastructure, internship opportunities, and international community.
