There are about 3 million Hungarians living as minority abroad in seven countries of Central Europe. Our research covered higher education with Hungarian medium of instruction in four countries where Hungarians still live in homogeneous blocks. The main points of our analysis were how the progressive assimilation effects on their perception of their life prospects, since we suspected that the controversial relationship between national identity and citizenship still has its negative effects on subjective factors of their life. For our investigation, we compared the families’ social status, the students’ academic careers, and their future career plans, their views on the meaning of their lives and on generalized trust as well as their religiosity. A subsample of students from Hungary was also involved in the comparison. We analyzed data on 1739 students . We concluded that progressive assimilation did not coincide with positive prospects
