Hello , I would like to inquire what are the admission exams for psychology .

You do not write directly to the college, but only to the PortalVŠ page. Which college do you want to apply to?

#3449

I want to appeal to UKF in NR, but I have been accepted to the other school in TT and enrolment is before I have the result from the appeals committee. Can I enroll in TT and withdraw if I am accepted to another school ?

You will need to check with the college to see if it is still possible to opt out before the start of the academic year. But once you're enrolled at a school and the school sends that information to the ministry, starting at another school will read that you've already studied at another school and you'll have to pay for your last year. But as I say, I don't know what the data sending policy is for each school, you need to check with the school.

#3441

If I am accepted to 2 colleges and I can't decide which one I want to go to at the moment and I need more time to decide, is it enough if I don't go to enroll in one of them? Or do I have to inform the college I won't be going to at some point in time?

I can't tell you exactly. Because every school has different rules. You have to check with the individual colleges. But beware, if you already enrolled in a college once and then you would like to go to another college, it is highly likely that they will already consider you as having already completed one academic year at another college.

#3437

#3401

Hello, I would like to ask if anyone can tell me how to proceed in case I got an FX from a compulsory subject in the winter semester of my second year of my MSc. Since I have not passed it, I will not be admitted to the state exams and therefore not to the thesis defense. However, I don't know if I should continue in the summer semester and take all the courses and complete the failed course the following school year, with the accumulated credits being carried over. Or do I need to take it all over again. Unfortunately, the study department always blasts me with the study regulations, but I could find no such information in the study regulations. I will be grateful for any info, thank you.

You need to contact the school with your question, I can't tell you how it works at your school. If the study department can't help you, you can also contact the vice dean for studies.

#3384

Hello, I would like to ask about graduation. In the academic year 2022/2023, I was in the 3rd year of the 3rd year of the Bachelor's degree programme at Charles University in BA. I did not pass the state exam because I did not get credits for some of the subjects I enrolled in. In July, I received a decision to initiate exclusion proceedings. Is it possible for the university to terminate my studies earlier than 31.8.2023? Am I not entitled to receive credits until the end of the academic year? In the study regulations, the university states that the review of studies is at the end of the year, i.e. the academic year.

You need to contact the university, e.g. the vice-dean for studies, who will explain what conditions you have not met and under what conditions your studies are terminated.

Hello. My son has been accepted to study at a university in Nitra , he had to apply if he is interested in the place. The other university in Trnava, although we called the study department, could not tell us the result yet. The committee is yet to meet. Of course my son is interested in studying at the Trnava university. I didn't want to take any risks so we applied for enrolment which will be on 02.09.2021. I want to ask how we should proceed if the university in Trnava accepts us for studies ? Won't the university in Nitra receive money for him since he has already applied ? Will we not have to pay for the studies in Trnava ? Thank you

Your best bet would be to contact the university in Nitra directly and find out what time they send the information to the ministry and arrange accordingly.

Hello, please, if as a current student of one faculty I send applications to another faculty of the same university /the faculties are connected in one field/, after admission I remain a student of the current faculty or can I be terminated in some circumstances through admission to another faculty? Even if I don't show up for the enrollment of the new faculty after admission, nothing changes at the old faculty? Can't any problems arise from the situation if I change my mind and still stay only at the original faculty even after admission elsewhere?

If you apply to another faculty of the same university and you want to stay on at your current faculty, you will be double enrolled. You will pay tuition fees for one study and study at two faculties at the same time.

You may take the admissions exam if you are enrolled. However, it depends on when the college sends the information that you are a student of the school. Because if you wanted to go to the other college and were already enrolled at the first one, you might then have to pay for a year of study.

Hello, I would like to ask that whether the entrance exam for physiotherapy consists of biology, physics and movement part? And if so, how many questions and what is the best preparation for those questions. Are those questions chosen from the questions that are also on the medical school entrance exam or are there completely different ones? And I would also like to know what the movement exams are about and whether it is possible to take them even if I am exempted from physical?

Since you are not writing directly to the college, but only to PortalVS user support, it would be advisable to contact the study officer directly, who will provide you with all the relevant information.

#3208

Hello, in the school year 2018/2019 I was studying first year at UCM, (full-time form) but I decided to send my application to another school and I was accepted to that one, also full-time form. I did not finish my first year at UCM and I would like to ask you if I should still cancel my studies at UCM before enrolling at the new school (3.9.) in order to be eligible for free studies at the new school.

You will not have a completely free study, because the one year you studied at UCM you will have to pay for at another university, because that one year is already considered as extra (if you study full-time). In case you do not enrol in the next year at UCM, the university should automatically consider this as dropping out. In any case, I would contact the study department at UCM and take it up with them, as they will tell you exactly how to proceed.

#3205

I would like to ask when the admission procedure for the Preschool Elementary Pedagogy for Socially Disadvantaged Groups in Levoča will be held.

If there is an entrance exam, the college should send you an official invitation letter, which will include the date and venue of the entrance exam.

#3191

Good evening, I have sent my application online but I have not paid for it. And I've decided to go to that school. I don't want to. How should I proceed?

The faculty is the same only the major is wrong.

#3177

Hello, I'm a first year student at UCM studying physiotherapy but I want to apply for the same course in BB. I don't want to cancel my studies at UCM until I am accepted there. Is it possible for me to be accepted to study while I am a student at another university?

Please, if I graduated last year, which documents will be verified by the registry office or notary and which by the school? I know that the notary or the registry office verifies the graduation certificate, but please tell me how it is for the certificates from grades 1-3. the school verified them last year, but now I don't know how it is whether they can verify it or the registry office/notary has to verify it again. And who verifies the printed electronic application form because the school verified that last year too, do I have to go to the school again to have my application form verified? Because I read on the internet that if I have my certificates certified by a registrar or notary then the application form doesn't need to be certified anymore, but I don't know if that's true please can you help me with that ? who verifies what? Last year it was easier everything was verified by the school except the matric certificate but now I am very confused. Thank you very much for your reply.
