At Cyprus University of Technology (CUT), the official language of instruction is Greek. However, the university is committed to supporting incoming Erasmus students by providing resources and accommodations to facilitate their academic experience.

English Language Requirements

Incoming students are expected to have a minimum English language proficiency of B2 level. As part of their application, students must provide one of the following:
