The secondary school grade point average refers to the sum of all grade averages from all subjects in first, second, third and fourth grade multiplied by 2 (two). On this basis, an applicant can have at least 16 and up to 40 points. The applicant may earn a maximum of 60 points in the entrance exam. The grade point average is rounded to two decimal places.
In the entrance exam, the applicants may score the number of points ranging from 0 to 60. An applicant has passed the entrance exam (and is thus entitled to be ranked for enrolment) if he/she scores at least 14 points in the entrance exam.
An applicant can enrol in a degree programme with the status of a student financed from the budget (budget-financed student) or a student who finances the studies himself/herself (self-financing student), which depends on the total number of points, place on the ranking list, and the approved number of students for enrolment in the particular degree programme.
An applicant can enrol with the status of a budget-financed student if he/she is on the unique ranking list up to the number approved for enrolment of candidates financed by the budget and if he/she scores more than 50 points.
Note: At the same level of study, only once can a student can be enrolled in the first year of study with the status of a budget-financed student.
An applicant can enrol in the status of a self-financing student if he/she is on the unique ranking list up to the number approved for the enrolment of self-financing students and if he/she scores at least 30 points.
If the applicant who is ranked on the final/general ranking list within the numbers determined for enrolment does not enrol within the deadline set in this Call, it will be considered that he/she has given up enrolment, and the next candidate will be enrolled in his/her place according to the final/general ranking list.
Note: When applying for a call for admission to the first degree of studies (Bachelor's) can apply for a maximum of three degree programmes. If he/she is applying for more than one degree programme, the applicant must indicate which degree programme is his/her primary and which programme or programmes are supplementary. The applicant takes the entrance exam for the degree programme that he/she marked as primary.
After the entrance exam, when the ranking lists are published, the applicant who has met the conditions for enrolment can enrol in a single degree programme at the expense of the budget.
When ranking applicants within a degree programme, priority is given to applicants who have marked that degree programme as primary.
The applicants entitled to enrol at the expense of the budget in a primary degree programme, will not be ranked on the lists of degree programmes that they have listed as supplementary.
The applicants entitled to enrol as a self-financing students or are not entitled to enrolin their primary degree programme, will be ranked, in addition to the ranking list of the primary programme, on the ranking lists of the degree programmes they have listed as supplementary, but only if those degree programmes have remaining vacancies (in relation to the announced quota) *. In that case, the applicant has the opportunity to choose which programme he/she wants to enrol in depending on his/her affinities or positions on different rankings. The ranking of applicants within the remaining vacancies is based on the total number of points scored in the entrance exam, regardless of which exam the applicant took.
An applicant can apply for several degree programmes and take the entrance exam for each of them, in which case the applicant cannot opt for supplementary programmes.
8. Manner and deadlines for filing a complaint for the established order:
