PRE-APPLICATION DEADLINE: April 14th 2023 (Non-EU candidates residing abroad and requiring a visa), July 28th 2023 (EU candidates)

Applications will be screened within approximately three weeks from the submission date. If evaluated positively, you will receive the Pre-Acceptance letter, meaning that you are eligible for admission and pre-accepted to our Master's programme.

If you still have to graduate you can submit application without a bachelor degree and attach it later, even after the deadline has passed. Your application will be evaluated once you obtain the degree and enclose it to your appplication.

If you are in doubt whether or not to apply because you are not sure if you are eligible, we suggest you to complete the pre-selection application and get a response from us - it is free of charge and does not require big effort from your side.

No applications except those submitted according to the official procedure will be evaluated.

Although formally the deadlines are loose, we suggest to complete all formal procedures as soon as possible. Until you are officially enrolled (paid tuition fees), you will not be able to be granted scholarships and student dorms, student's card and access to general services (tutoring, canteens, etc.).
