Student life and support
European University of Tirana (UET) — Bachelor of Nursing
UET does not operate its own residential halls; students typically rent in Tirana's well-connected residential areas near the campus. Shared apartments in Tirana near the UET campus area cost €100–200 per person per month — among the cheapest student accommodation in any European capital. Popular neighbourhoods include Blloku, Myslym Shyri, and the areas near the Mother Teresa hospital complex. The university's international office provides pre-arrival accommodation guidance and connects new students with existing tenants. Students Traffic provides an arrival accommodation guide and shortlist for the campus area.
UET's international office provides orientation, immigration guidance for the residence permit process, and academic advising. Erasmus+ student networks are active on campus and support international student integration. UET peer mentoring from senior international students is available informally. Students Traffic provides end-to-end support: eligibility assessment, complete UET application management, MEA apostille coordination for Indian documents, Albania Type D student visa application, Tirana accommodation guide, pre-departure briefing, language training pathway planning (German/Italian for European career goals), and post-graduation credential recognition roadmap for Germany, Italy, or the UK.

SMK does not operate dedicated university dormitories for nursing students — accommodation is the student's responsibility, with SMK providing guidance and assistance for those who need help. Shared room rental costs by city: Vilnius EUR 200–400/month per person; Kaunas EUR 150–300/month; Klaipeda EUR 130–250/month — all among the most affordable private rental markets in the EU. Most Indian students share 2–3 person apartments to keep costs down. SMK assists incoming international students with accommodation search guidance, neighbourhood recommendations, and contacts. Students Traffic provides city-specific accommodation guides and connects new SMK students with existing Indian students at their chosen campus before arrival.
SMK provides comprehensive international student support including a structured first-week induction programme, assigned academic counsellors for each student, a Psychological Counselling Service, and the 'Hey Ready' career centre for employment connections. TRP and immigration guidance is provided upon admission — SMK issues the mediation number required to book VFS Global appointments for Indian students, and provides enrolled students with TRP renewal guidance annually. SMK's Moodle LMS, e-library, and Classter digital management platform support academic progress throughout the programme. Students Traffic provides end-to-end support: eligibility and scholarship assessment (40% talent scholarship eligibility check), motivation interview coaching with SMK-specific mock sessions, complete application management through apply.smk.lt, campus city selection guidance (Vilnius vs Kaunas vs Klaipeda), MIGRIS registration and VFS Global appointment coordination, accommodation search assistance for all three cities, pre-departure briefing (winter clothing list, arrival checklist, Indian community contacts), and annual TRP renewal reminders.
