Here is some useful information that could answer some of your questions. If you are unsure about anything, contact your Buddy or Buddy Coordinator at buddy@esn-ostravska.cz
ESN cannot make reservations for you, but here are some places we recommend:
Tips & Tricks — How to Survive in Ostrava as an International Student
🛒 Tip #1 — Home Goods
We always recommend the glorious IKEA — you can find everything you need plus eat meatballs in their restaurant! You can also try PEPCO, Tiger, KiK, or JYSK for quite cheap home goods.
Are you coming to Ostrava and worried about the local environment? Do you want to handle all the needed paperwork (accommodation, city transportation, school system) easily?
Find a Buddy!
A Buddy is a volunteer local student — and maybe your first friend here! 🙂 They will be happy to give you local tips (places to visit, shops, clubs, etc.), translate for you (not all people here speak English), and help you whenever you need.

University of Ostrava was founded in 1991 and offers higher education at the Faculties of Philosophy, Education, Science, Social Studies, Medicine and Arts in many bachelor, master and post-graduate programs.
There are several dormitories in Ostrava. Your faculty coordinator will recommend one of them, but that is just a recommendation — you are free to choose any of these.
