Welcome
Dear Student, Welcome to the webpage of the National Union of Students in Hungary’s (HÖOK) Stipendium Hungaricum Mentor Network. If you are a first-year student, about to arrive in Hungary, do not worry! The HÖOK SHMN mentor program registration is open from the 17th of August until the 31st of October. You have plenty of time to apply and choose a mentor.
The Stipendium Mentor Network was born in 2018, after a series of programmes, carried out by the National Union of Students in Hungary (HÖOK), called "Jövőkép". During these programmes, the representatives of HÖOK visited the higher educational institutions in Hungary and surveyed the needs of students. These surveys showed that there is an urgent need to help the cultural and higher educational integration of foreign students that come to the country with the Stipendium Hungaricum scholarship. HÖOK established a plan and started to execute a mentor network that would be able to aim the integration of such students. The organisation is supported by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade. The first pilot year of the network started in the autumn semester of 2018. The network was present at 10 of the Hungarian universities at that time. In the fifth year, the list was extended, and the programme now has 31 partner institutions:
Budapest Metropolitan University
Budapest University of Economics and Business
Budapest University of Technology and Economics
Corvinus University of Budapest
