Any fees incurred by this courses are payable to the individual universities and are not part of the tuition fee. Students are not required to take such a language course, but are being recommended for it. Experience has shown that it is a useful way to already become acquainted with a university and the city in which it is located during the official start of the academic year, because in addition to the linguistic aspect, the language course generally also includes applied elements, in which participating students learn about the local culture through field trips or sessions on how to open a bank account, where to register as a student, where to find the cheapest cell phone plan, and other such practical aspects.<\/p>\n<p>The eventual language course fees are paid directly to the organizing institution upon signing up for the language course.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-433819398\" class=\"col medium-4 small-12 large-4\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n<ul class=\"sidebar-wrapper ul-reset\"><aside id=\"text-13\" class=\"widget widget_text\"><span class=\"widget-title \"><span>SMACCs<\/span><\/span><div class=\"is-divider small\"><\/div>\t\t\t<div class=\"textwidget\"><p>The programme is designed to improve the quality and relevance of higher education via the cooperation of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) and the labour market.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/aside><aside id=\"custom_html-2\" class=\"widget_text widget widget_custom_html\"><span class=\"widget-title \"><span>PARTNERS<\/span><\/span><div class=\"is-divider small\"><\/div><div class=\"textwidget custom-html-widget\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.umons.ac.be\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"logo-on-the-right\" rel=\"noopener\">\r\n<img alt=\"UMONS\" src=\"http:\/\/www.smaccs.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/umons-medsi-1.png\">\r\n<\/a>\r\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ihu.edu.gr\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"logo-on-the-right\" rel=\"noopener\">\r\n<img alt=\"IHU\" src=\"http:\/\/www.smaccs.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/ihu.v03-medsi-1.jpg\">\r\n<\/a>\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hw.ac.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"logo-on-the-right\" rel=\"noopener\">\r\n<img alt=\"HWU\" src=\"http:\/\/www.smaccs.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/hwu.v03-medsi-1.png\">\r\n<\/a>\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ehu.eus\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"logo-on-the-right\" rel=\"noopener\">\r\n<img alt=\"UPV\/EHU\" src=\"http:\/\/www.smaccs.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/ehu.png\">\r\n<\/a>\r\n<\/div><\/aside><\/ul>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":387,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-blank.php","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/archived.smaccs.eu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/548"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/archived.smaccs.eu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/archived.smaccs.eu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/archived.smaccs.eu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/archived.smaccs.eu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=548"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/archived.smaccs.eu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/548\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1299,"href":"https:\/\/archived.smaccs.eu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/548\/revisions\/1299"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/archived.smaccs.eu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/387"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/archived.smaccs.eu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=548"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
