UPON ARRIVAL
Registration

Registration hours

Participants are expected to arrive one day before the course starts (typically on a Sunday). The SUN Office staff will receive participants at the hotel, usually between 10:00 - 13:00 and/or 15:00 - 19:00. Exact registration hours for each arrival date will be communicated to participants via email by the SUN staff and/or the course coordinators. The hotel receptionists will be available for latecomers to provide information.


The registration process

Please visit the registration desk during the registration hours and collect your
  • welcome pack, which contains a map of Budapest; instructions how to buy a travel pass and how to get to the downtown campus where classes will be held; a guide to restaurants in and around CEU, etc.

  • visitor's card that should be presented upon entering the university premises, including the Library and the computer labs

During registration, you will be asked to submit the photocopy of your insurance policy (for citizens of EU member countries it is enough to present their EU health insurance card).


Computer access

Individual login names and passwords for the CEU computer system will be distributed during the Orientation Session on the first day of the course (typically on Monday).


Meeting your group and your course coordinator

Most course coordinators will try to meet their groups on Sunday and take those participants out around 6 pm who have arrived by then. They will also help you buy your travel pass. Please look for posters announcing these group meetings on the notice board at the hotel lobby.

In case your course does not organize any such events, you can start exploring the city on your own - if you need help or advice, please feel free to consult the SUN staff at the registration desk.


Buying your travel pass

For courses longer than one week: Please make sure you bring a photo sized 3.5x4.5 cm, which will speed up the process of getting your travel pass.
