Frequently asked.
I am an international student. Can I apply?
Yes, you can. You need to prove that you have finished the required level of education, either with an officially certified document on the equivalence of your foreign education (nostrification), or by asking for an internal evaluation of your foreign education as part of the admission procedure at CZU.
Recognition of foreign education ↗Can I apply to more than one programme?
Yes, you can. You submit a separate application and pay the application fee for each programme.
Are there any grade requirements?
No, there are no grade requirements. You need an authenticated certificate and an authenticated transcript of records from your previous study, and you need to pass the entrance examination.
When and how do I pay the application fee?
Instructions for payment are displayed once you have created the online application, filled in your personal details and address and submitted it. The fee is non-refundable at any stage of the admission procedure.
Do my documents need to be authenticated and translated?
Yes. Your diploma and transcript need to be authenticated according to the country where they were issued. We require notarised copies in your language, firmly bound with an official translation into Czech or English by a sworn translator, delivered by post. Post your documents only after we approve them by e-mail.
Authentication of documents ↗When should I start the internal evaluation of my education?
You can start with the authentication of your documents straight away, but you can apply for the internal evaluation only after passing the entrance examination. There is no fixed deadline. If you need a visa, submit your documents in May at the latest, because the visa process may take several months. The evaluation itself takes two to three weeks and is valid only for the given programme and academic year.
Are there any scholarships?
The faculty offers merit scholarships to students with excellent study results. Fully funded scholarships are also available from the Czech Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports.
