Here's what University College London says about its Czech and Dutch course.
The four-year BA Czech and Dutch is a joint honours programme split equally between your two languages. You will take modules not only in language (speaking, listening, reading, writing and translation) but also in cultural topics including literature, history, film, linguistics, politics and other relevant field designed to complement your language learning. With a wide variety of modules on offer, you will be able to tailor your modern languages degree to your areas of interest. You will spend a Year Abroad in the third year, split between two countries where your languages are spoken.
Czech is a Slavonic language, largely mutually comprehensible with Slovak and spoken by approximately 11 million native speakers. Studying Czech at SSEES (UCL School of Slavonic and East European Studies) provides an excellent opportunity to gain excellent language skills, in small class sizes and a profound knowledge of Czech literature, history and culture that will prepare you for a wide variety of careers in Europe.
UCL houses the oldest centre for Dutch Studies with the most comprehensive Dutch Library in the English-speaking world. You will gain near native understanding and translation skills in Dutch as part of your degree, and you will also learn about historical, cultural and political developments across the Low Countries as a whole. You will study in a small, friendly department, with an excellent staff-student ratio unusual in higher education nowadays.
UCL Is ranked 3rd in the UK for Modern Languages in the 2018 QS World Rankings and offers outstanding opportunities to language students and graduates.

My first year experience of university was not as positive as my second year. I was on the Biomedical Sciences course in first year and it is important to consider the number of students on each of your modules and on your course when considering universities.

It has a good balance of academics and extra-curriculars, which I personally value a lot in an educational institution. The course is well structured and there is a good balance of mathematics and economics. The facilities are very well preserved and it's great to learn about UCL's history. Initiall...

The SU has a range of activities and societies for students to get involved in. But they are not very close to students in general.

There are a lot of uni societies and London is a great city. The diversity in the uni is also amazing.

The price of the course is overrated, especially as an international student. It was weird to not have any classes or support in term 3, especially for my course as we do not have exams for most of the modules. But we still had to pay for it, which was unreasonable.

The welfare services are helpful. But the academic support is not great, as the tutors tend to be very fixed with their assigned time and the help that I was given did not help me to engage in academics in a stimulating way.

Are you thinking of applying to this university?
Before you do, it's a good idea to go to an open day. You can have a good look around campus, getting a better idea of what it's like to study there. You'll meet current students and staff and get the chance to ask them questions.
Universities will list upcoming open days on their websites. Most will also have virtual open days; these are a great alternative if you really can't get there in person. For tips on preparing for open days, check the advice section here on The Uni Guide.
