City and student life

About 85,000 people live in Brčko District, which has its own special administrative status and is shared by all communities of the country. The town has a compact centre with a pedestrian street, a riverside promenade and a lively market.
European University Brčko District is on Bijeljinska cesta, easy to reach on foot or by city bus from most neighbourhoods. Bus lines connect Brčko with Tuzla, Bijeljina and Sarajevo, and the bridge over the Sava takes you into Croatia in minutes. Tuzla International Airport is about an hour away, and Belgrade around two hours.
The climate is continental, with warm summers that are perfect for evenings by the river and cold, foggy winters. Prices are low: a coffee costs about €1 and a lunch menu €5 to €7. Students describe Brčko as calm and safe, with a friendly, mixed population.
For nature, the Sava riverbank and the Ficibajir hill above town are favourite spots for walking and cycling. Nearby you also find Sinergija University in Bijeljina and the University of Tuzla, both about an hour away, which gives you a wider student scene in the region.
Our advice for accommodation: start with a room in a shared flat near the university for the first semester and look for your own studio once you know the town. We organise viewings, check rental contracts and make sure your address is accepted for the residence permit.
