VSE PRAGUE. Big mess
I’m honestly kind of panicking and would really appreciate advice from anyone familiar with VŠE Prague or studying in the Czech Republic.
A few weeks ago I started my application for the BBA program at VŠE and paid the application fee, but my family became really nervous about the idea of me moving to Prague and told me it probably wasn’t a good idea. They encouraged me to continue pursuing Spain instead, so I stopped working on the VŠE application and got super anxious/confused about everything.
Now the Spain situation has mostly fallen through, and recently I talked to someone who actually attended VŠE and they had an amazing experience there. Ever since then I can’t stop thinking about Prague and I genuinely feel like I may have given up on something really good out of fear.
I know this probably makes me seem disorganized or like a bad applicant, but the truth is this whole process has been extremely messy and emotionally overwhelming for me, and I’ve genuinely been struggling a lot trying to figure out the right path. I really do care deeply about my education and my future, and I had the best intentions throughout all of this even if I handled things imperfectly.
The problem is that my application is now late/incomplete and I don’t know if there’s realistically anything I can do at this point. Has anyone here had experience with late applications, contacting admissions, second rounds, exceptions, etc.? Would it be worth emailing/calling them, or should I just accept that I missed my chance?
Has anyone here gone through something similar before? What are the chances that admissions would actually reply or be willing to help me at this point? And if this path is closed, are there any other universities/programs in Prague or Europe that might still be accepting applications?
I’d really appreciate any honest advice or support because I feel pretty lost right now.
Edit. I also kind of need to make a decision in the next 1 to 4 weeks since I need to sign a lease at my home university if not, for context I’m also not right out of high school. I’ve done two years at community college. The university in my hometown is MSU and it’s insanely expensive much more expensive than VSE when consider, considering all the costs.
