How to apply

The admission process for our Bachelor and Master programs is online only and there is no entrance exam. We will evaluate your application solely on the basis of the documents you will have submitted.

If you are going to need a student visa to study in Czechia, we strongly recommend the early-bird application deadline. That way, you will have enough time to obtain a visa before enrolling in the program.

When you submit the application, you will also have to pay the application fee which is currently 880 CZK (approximately 40 EUR). This has to be done by the application deadline you are aiming for.

When to apply?

Early-bird application deadline: 28 February 2025

Regular application deadline: 30 April 2025

For students from visa-seeking countries, we strongly recommend the early-bird deadline.

Scholarships

Our programs are paid but we offer a set of scholarships to help you with the costs. Our Faculty administers several different scholarship options of two types:

Tuition fee reductions
These scholarships are awarded in the form of a discount on the tuition fee, usually around one third or two  thirds of the annual fee. They are awarded based on excellent results during the admission process or studies, or once the student fulfils all their study obligations at the end of their studies. 

Financial aid scholarships
These scholarships are awarded in the form of a one lump sum payment that is intended to go towards the student’s tuition or living expenses. They are awarded either based on good study results or difficult financial situation of the students needing aid with living expenses. 

There are other options of scholarships not administered by our faculty, such as the Visegrad Fund or Fullbright. Students from selected developing countries can also apply for a Czech Government Scholarship – Developing Countries for selected study programs.
