McDaniel College Budapest

Founded in 1994, the Budapest campus of McDaniel College reflected McDaniel College alumnus George Varga’s dream of adding a liberal arts presence to the rich higher education landscape of his native Hungary. Since then, the campus has grown to offer a full four-year Bachelor’s Degree program aiming to deliver the best in U.S. higher learning amid the international vitality of Budapest.

From its founding in the U.S. state of Maryland in 1867, McDaniel College has aimed to foster a diverse student-centered community committed to excellence, seeking opportunities for global learning and engagement. With careful mentoring and attention to the individual, McDaniel changes lives. We challenge students to develop their unique potentials with reason, imagination, and human concern. Through flexible academic programs, collaborative and experiential learning, and global engagement, McDaniel prepares students for successful lives of leadership, service, and social responsibility.
