Conditions of admission
The condition for admission to the admission procedure for the Bachelor's degree at the Faculty of Physical Education of the Jagiellonian University is successful completion of the matriculation examination from at least one of the required subjects of the matriculation examination.
Alternative to the matriculation examination in mathematics is passing the mathematics examination conducted by an authorized external assessor (https://www.scio.sk/nps/matematika.asp). An alternative to the matriculation examination in biology or chemistry is an examination in biology or chemistry conducted by an authorised external assessor (https://www.scio.sk/nps/biologie.asp or https://www.scio.sk/nps/chemie.asp).
An alternative to the matriculation examination in any of the above subjects for Ukrainian applicants for full-time studies with the Slovak language of instruction is passing an examination in the relevant subject assessed by an external independent assessor (http://osvita.ua/test/).
