Recent Trends and Considerations

Cyprus has seen an increase in the establishment of private universities, especially in Northern Cyprus, attracting international students. However, reports of fraudulent practices and human rights concerns, including issues surrounding illegal immigration and exploitation, have emerged. Prospective students should exercise discretion, verify the legitimacy of institutions, and be mindful of the political and legal distinctions between the Republic of Cyprus and Northern Cyprus. Despite these challenges, Cyprus continues to be a welcoming destination for international students, offering quality education and a rich cultural experience.
