Chance of enrolling:
Based on statistics of last year Summer Universities, the chance of participation, indicates your chances of being chosen after applying for a SU.
 
?
? : this local did not organise a SU last year
few applicants 1 paw: last year there was for every place about 3 applications (it is more difficult to get into this SU probably)
few more applicants 2 paws: last year there was for every place about 2 applications
quite a few applicants 3 paws: last year there was for every place about 1.6 applications
a lot of applicants 4 paws: last year there was for every place about 1.3 applications
a whole lot of applicants 5 paws: last year there were roughly as many applicants as open places (easier to get into this SU probably)
Of course in the end it all comes down to your application letter. If you don't take time to fill it out properly your chances are small. Remember that the SU-organisers make a big effort to organise a summer university. So it is only normal that you try to make a bit of an effort to fill out the application letter and supply them with a good motivation.

SU
Summer University.
A SU consists of an event organised by an AEGEE Antenna, lasting at least two weeks. Although there different kinds of SU's, we can find commmon aspects indentifying the programme as a whole in placing students coming from all over Europe, encouraging the sharing of different cultural patrimonies and the developing of linguistic capabilities.

AEGEE SU
AEGEE Summer Universities are very different from other summery aboad sojourns: they are organised by students for students. Often they include workshops concerning the history, literature and cinema of the hosting area. This once again, reflects AEGEE's traditional formula: acquaint Europeans with Europe. Moreover the SU distinguishes itself by the extensive leisure programme.

Lodging
According to the type of event and its relative philosophy sleeping conditions may vary considerably. As you read in the booklet, from “tents” to “gym” (sleeping bags on the floor), to more luxurious “youth hostels”, the offer is wide. Please consider lodging descriptions carefully as you evaluate the events!!! Also think that the price you will be charged is quite low, and this is the only way to concretely allow as many and different people as possible to apply.

Summer University Type
ALL the Summer University events offer you fun and an exciting programme. In particular, they also guarantee at least one meal per day and lodging for the whole event: included in the price (max € 80 per week eventually plus the price of one optional excursion).
