International Students

Admission of foreign students is done through the IRK online admission system.

  1. Admission to first-cycle and uniform master's studies

Admission to studies for candidates holding a foreign maturity certificate is based on a competition (ranking) of the sum of points obtained on the secondary education final exams or certificate in three subjects covered by the qualification procedure, as specified on the website: https://rekrutacja.uwm.edu.pl/kryteria-kwalifikacji/ and the assessment of the candidate's predisposition - in the following fields: visual arts, artistic education in the field of music, speech therapy, music production and sound engineering. Subject scoring from the secondary education certificate on a scale incomparable to those listed on the website is not converted. This means that the candidate cannot be directly qualified in the recruitment but is required to take an oral entrance examination in two subjects:

The average grades obtained qualify the candidate in the competition (ranking) for the final result of the studies.
