A total of 62 international students are currently studying at the Hungarian Dance University, as 24 new international students have begun their studies at the 75-year-old institution this academic year. Ten percent of the university’s student body comes from different parts of the world, which is a source of pride, as it clearly demonstrates that the professional work carried out at the institution – and, through it, Hungarian dance art – is known and recognized across the globe.
It is also important to note that several of the international students earned their place at the university thanks to their outstanding performances at the Budapest Ballet Grand Prix (BBGP). Most of them have since enrolled in one of the university’s programmes.
As registration for the 3rd edition of the BBGP is currently underway, the university’s leadership and the organizers are confident that this year, once again, many talented ballet dancers will be given the opportunity to continue their studies in Budapest at the prestigious Hungarian Dance University.
In the 2025/2026 academic year, 45 students are enrolled in the Dance Artist preparatory BA programme in the Classical Ballet specialization, two students are in the Dance Artist BA programme in the Modern specialization twelve students are studying in the Dancer and Coach BA programme, Classical Ballet specialization; and three students are pursuing Dancer and Coach BA studies in the Modern specialization.
We are proud that talented young dance artists from 20 countries are studying at the Hungarian Dance University.
