So, you’ve chosen VILNIUS TECH as your Erasmus destination? Great choice.

As an exchange student, you will be joining one of Lithuania’s largest and most international academic communities. With thousands of students, a wide range of study programmes, and hundreds of partner universities abroad, international exchange is already a big part of everyday life here.

For incoming students, that also means practical support. The International Relations Office helps exchange students get started, and every faculty has its own coordinator to assist with academic questions and study organisation. You will also be assigned an ESN Mentor to help make your first days and integration smoother.

If you are looking for official information from the university, you can find it here.

Vilnius is one of those cities that surprises people in the best way. It may be smaller than some other European capitals, but that is part of its charm. It is cosy, creative, green, and full of places that quickly start to feel familiar.

You can wander through the streets of the Old Town, one of the largest in Europe, discover hidden courtyards, relax in small cafés, or climb up to Gediminas Castle Tower for a view over the city. If you want something a little more alternative, head to Užupis — Vilnius’ artistic district, known for its creative spirit and unique atmosphere.

If you want to get a better feel for everyday life in Lithuania, this guide is a great place to start.

Starting your exchange can feel exciting, confusing, and a little overwhelming all at once, and that is completely normal. That is where ESN VILNIUS TECH comes in.

We help incoming students settle in, meet new people, and make the most of their time here. Through events, activities, and everyday support, we try to make sure your Erasmus experience is not only smooth, but also fun and memorable.

So if you are coming to VILNIUS TECH - welcome. We cannot wait to meet you!
