Conditions of admission

The basic condition for admission (Section 56 of the Higher Education Act) to study a second degree programme is completion of a first degree programme in the same or a related field of study.

An applicant who fails to prove fulfilment of the basic condition for admission to the study at the time of verification of fulfilment of the conditions for admission may be admitted to the study conditionally, provided that he/she is obliged to prove fulfilment of the basic conditions for admission to the study no later than on the date set for enrolment in the study.

The decisive criterion for the selection of students for the 2nd cycle of studies will be the achievement in the 1st cycle of studies and the results of the state bachelor's examination.

The maximum number of points that a student can achieve is 200 points (study average for the 1st cycle studies + the sum of the marks obtained in the Bachelor's degree examination). The individual points are given in Tables 1 and 2.
