Frequently asked questions

Why are there two dates for entrance examination?

First date of entrance examination in March is there mainly for applicants outside EU who need time to obtain visa. Of course, even if applicants are from countries within EU and are interested to take the test in March, they are welcome to do so. There is no advantage in taking the test in March other than potentially being admitted sooner. The results are considered equal from both dates.

Does your faculty offer dormitories or other types of accomodation?

Dormitories are currently under reconstruction and the capacity is very limited. Students can find appropriate accomodiation for themselves. Flat sharing between students is also very popular.
