For some students, it also represents a leap across cultures and continents. That\u2019s the journey Kristof Kincses began when he moved from Budapest, Hungary, to Chattanooga for college. Now a senior in the Gary W. Rollins College of Business, he\u2019s pursuing a degree in Business Management and competing on UTC\u2019s men\u2019s tennis team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I recently sat down with Kristof to talk about his experience at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, what it\u2019s like to study thousands of miles from home, and how the Rollins College of Business has shaped his academic and professional path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kristof told me that UTC first stood out during a virtual call with Chuck Merzbacher, head coach of the men\u2019s tennis team. Coach Merzbacher described the team as a \u201cfamily,\u201d and Kristof said that sense of community has proven true. After the call, he researched Chattanooga and immediately felt a connection. The river running through downtown reminded him of the Danube in Budapest, making a new place feel surprisingly familiar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When comparing higher education in Hungary to the United States, Kristof emphasized UTC\u2019s commitment to applied learning. Back home, coursework was more hands-off and heavily exam driven. At UTC, he\u2019s gained practical skills through assignments designed to prepare students for real-world careers. One meaningful example came from his Success Seminar course, where he built a professional r\u00e9sum\u00e9 and cover letter. These materials helped him secure a summer position in the management department of Erste Bank, one of the largest banks in Europe. His internship culminated with him delivering a major presentation during his final week, putting his strengthened communication skills to the test.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cStudying in America helps you stand out in Europe,\u201d he explained. Kristof shared that employers value the experience-based structure of U.S. business programs, and that background has played a major role in his professional development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.utc.edu\/app\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2025\/11\/IMG_5749-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2808 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.utc.edu\/app\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2025\/11\/IMG_5749-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.utc.edu\/app\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2025\/11\/IMG_5749-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.utc.edu\/app\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2025\/11\/IMG_5749-580x387.jpg 580w, https:\/\/blog.utc.edu\/app\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2025\/11\/IMG_5749-610x407.jpg 610w, https:\/\/blog.utc.edu\/app\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2025\/11\/IMG_5749.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p>However, his transition wasn\u2019t without challenges. Although he learned English academically in Hungary, adapting to conversational English took time. He recalled his first career fair as one of his most intimidating moments, uncertain about the language, unsure of employer expectations, and hesitant about whether he belonged. Looking back, he considers attending the event a turning point. \u201cHow do you improve if you avoid the hard things,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kristof also highlighted cultural differences, particularly the friendliness he noticed at UTC. \u201cEveryone here is so friendly and talks to each other,\u201d he said. This supportive environment has shaped his positive outlook both on and off the tennis court. Even after tough matches, he reminds himself that setbacks are temporary \u2014 they\u2019re just small bumps in the road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When advising future international students, Kristof didn\u2019t hesitate to communicate with your professors. \u201cYour professors want you to succeed, especially in the College of Business,\u201d he said. Faculty members have helped him navigate language challenges, a demanding athletic schedule, and the typical adjustments that come with studying abroad. \u201cThey really work with you here,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kristof chose business management because he wanted a career path with flexibility and global mobility. Business management allows him to pursue opportunities across different industries and regions, giving him a broader international path. He hopes to pursue a master\u2019s degree in the future, though he\u2019s still exploring where that next chapter might take place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.utc.edu\/app\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2025\/11\/IMG_5744.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.utc.edu\/app\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2025\/11\/IMG_5744-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2806\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.utc.edu\/app\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2025\/11\/IMG_5744-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.utc.edu\/app\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2025\/11\/IMG_5744-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.utc.edu\/app\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2025\/11\/IMG_5744-580x387.jpg 580w, https:\/\/blog.utc.edu\/app\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2025\/11\/IMG_5744-610x407.jpg 610w, https:\/\/blog.utc.edu\/app\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2025\/11\/IMG_5744.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Kristof reinforced how valuable global perspectives are within the Rollins College of Business.

His story reflects both the challenges and opportunities that come from embracing a new environment, and the strength students can draw from a welcoming community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Where will business take you?
