Additional information

Basic admission requirement

The basic condition for admission to the Bachelor's degree (first cycle study programme) is the acquisition of full secondary education or full secondary vocational education (Act on Higher Education No. 131/2002 Coll., as amended). In the case of a foreign applicant or a student who has completed secondary education abroad, this is an education comparable to that completed by the matriculation examination in the Slovak Republic. An applicant who has obtained secondary education abroad shall submit a decision on the recognition of the document on the completion of secondary education by the relevant institution in the Slovak Republic with the application for university studies, or at the latest at the time of enrolment in the studies.

Other admission conditions

Detailed Principles and rules of the admission procedure for the 1st cycle of studies can be found published on the faculty's website by 30 September 2021. The admission procedure will be carried out in the form of a selection procedure in order to ensure that applicants with the necessary abilities and prerequisites will be admitted to the study. The final decision on the outcome of the admission procedure will be taken by the Dean of the UNIZA Faculty of Science on the basis of the proposal of the UNIZA Faculty of Science Admissions Committee.

Study in the study programmes of Bachelor's degree in full-time form will be opened only if the conditions of admission in individual study programmes are met by at least 15 applicants. The study programmes of the Bachelor's degree in the external form will be open only if the admission conditions for each study programme are fulfilled by at least 10 candidates. The full-time Bachelor's degree programme in Civil Engineering will be open only if at least 5 applicants meet the admission requirements. In case of a lower number of applicants, the faculty management will decide on the opening or non-opening of the respective study programme. The number of students admitted to individual study programmes may be modified on the basis of the current number of applications and capacity possibilities.

It is within the competence of the Dean of the Faculty of Science of UNIZA to supplement the number of admitted applicants for study programmes in the 1st year of Bachelor's studies to the expected number of applicants who:

• have fulfilled the conditions for admission in another study programme of bachelor's study, but have not been admitted due to filling the capacity of the originally chosen study programme,
• have fulfilled the conditions for admission in another bachelor's degree programme, but the degree programme was not opened because a lower number of applicants fulfilled the admission requirements.

Such applicants must also meet the admission requirements for the supplemented programme of study.

In selected Bachelor's degree programmes, a second round of admissions will also be organised in case of vacancies. The list of bachelor study programmes for the second round of admissions will be published by 15.6.2022.

The admission conditions and the form of admission for Bachelor's studies are the same as for the first round of admissions.
