McDaniel College Budapest is the European campus of McDaniel College, an accredited, private college of the Liberal Arts and Sciences, located in Westminster, Maryland, United States.

The European campus of McDaniel College in Budapest is accredited by the Commission on Higher Education of the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools, the accrediting agency for McDaniel College. McDaniel College Budapest is registered in Hungary as a foreign institution of higher education by permission of the Hungarian Minister of Education.
The Budapest campus of McDaniel College was established in 1993 and the first academic year started in September 1994. Originally it was placed in a modern educational centre on the Buda side and moved to its recent location in 2001, a restored late 19th century school building. [3] Since its founding, more than 300 students who began their studies in Budapest have graduated from McDaniel College. In addition, several hundred students from McDaniel College in Westminster as well as other colleges have studied abroad there.
In 2017, McDaniel was the first college to sign an agreement in compliance with a new Hungarian law affecting all universities based outside the European Union. [4]

McDaniel College Budapest offers a number of major programs, from art history, business, and communication, to political science and psychology. Students can enter the program as undecided, sample a number of different courses, and then choose their major. In addition, if students decide they would like to pursue a major different than the one they started, they are free to change majors—all of the credits earned remain on a student's record, and no time is lost for graduation. Some of the majors can be pursued in combined dual major programs—art-communication, business-economics—that combine features of more than one major program in order to give students more options after graduation. [6]
Students from more than twenty countries study at the college. [7] Classes are conducted in English. Campus has a student newspaper, Messenger. [8]
