Why ELTE?

This university provides a degree program that I was looking for, the only one I could find in Budapest. ELTE is one of the best universities in Hungary, with great background. Many Hungarian government officials have studied at this university. Amongst other universities in Budapest, ELTE has the best location in the city center, which means it is easily accessible from any parts of the city.
