10 honest answers from the university to key questions from parents of our future students.
Parents have the right to know in what conditions their child will study, who will be responsible for their child’s safety, and what real prospects the chosen educational program offers.
That is why the Vasyl Stefanyk Carpathian National University is initiating the Parents’ Forum — an open meeting for honest conversation without embellishment or advertising slogans.
