Free weekends can be spent in Budapest or one of the other historic cities of Hungary.

Outreaches will be real ministry in Hungary or another European country. There will be one 10 day outreach and several weekend outreaches you may join.

There will be approximately 100 students here who are serious about their studies. They will be from 15 different countries. Almost all of them will speak English.

It will be a time to discover more about God, other cultures, and more about you.

It will be hot in the summer and cold with snow in the winter.

Outreach

Outreaches
CCBCE Weekend Outreaches: One of our aims is to have students to participate in and reach out to the local Calvary Chapels around Hungary and surrounding countries. These are voluntary outreaches. We encourage you to have some money set aside for a few weekend outreaches. Plan on $150 for three weekend outreaches.

CCBCE Ten-Day Outreaches: Students are required to go on one 10-day outreach. In the past, students have gone to the Ukraine, Serbia, Romania, Hungary, Germany, Slovenia, Kosovo, France, Scotland, England, Ethiopia, Nigeria, Poland, Spain, Russia, Croatia, Austria, Finland, France, Khyrgystan, Italy, etc. Plan on a minimum of $500 for an outreach.

Money

Obtaining Money
The closest ATM bank machine is about 30 minutes away by bus.

Students are encouraged to use the ATM machine to get money from home. Money from the ATM's will be given in Hungarian Forints.

Do not bring Travelers Checks, they are not used here.
 
Medical Care and Insurance
CCBCE does not offer medical insurance. Students who want coverage while attending here should check their policies at home to see what is covered while abroad or purchase insurance before coming. Hungarian health care is cheaper than the US, so for an occasional doctor visit or minor care the cost is reasonable and affordable. Insurance is not required to attend CCBCE, but is recommended. CCBCE does have a Hungarian nurse living on campus.
