What does acronym "AEGEE" mean?
AEGEE is the acronym for the Association des Etats Generaux des Etudiants de l'Europe (French) which means European students forum
What kind of project Summer University is?
A Summer University is usually a two-week event organized by an AEGEE local where between 20 and 60 students come together from all over Europe. Summer Universities are organized by students for students. The activities carried out during a Summer University range from academic activities as classes to learn a foreign language, different courses on technical themes to multicultural activities: get familiar with Finnish culture, Spanish history, Greek mythology; learn how to sail or tracking or etc. Each year around 90 Summer Universities take place all over Europe, with around 2500 students from more than a 30 European countries; from Spain to Moldova, and from Finland to Malta.
If I have graduated from the university and I'm not a student now is it possible to be member of AEGEE?
Yes. All young active people from 18 to 35 years can become AEGEE members.
I really want to join, but I'm not that good at English, is it a problem?
Well, English and French are the official AEGEE languages, still inside our AEGEE-Kyiv local we speak Ukrainian or Russian, so you won't have problems here. But, of course, if you wish to participate in an SU or any external event you'll need at least the basic "survival" English to enjoy youself there(you can trust me, it's no fun not understanding what the organizers or the group at large are saying to you). So my suggestion would be to try and improve your English and not to miss the change to practise it in AEGEE!)
