How to Apply

When to apply?

Admissions for the academic year 2025/26 will open in November.

Important note for visa-seeking students: Please read about the visa process carefully before applying. You are responsible for organizing your legal stay in Czechia and the visa application process can get quite lengthy. The extended deadlines are therefore strongly recommended to students who already possess the legal right to long-term stay in Czechia.

HOW TO APPLY?

Applications are online only

Upload all your attachments before you finalize your application and don’t forget to click „Send“ to submit your application. Only complete applications will be considered. All the required attachments are listed below. Always check the website of your chosen program; there may be program specific variations. All documents need to be translated to English or Czech. If you want to add other non-mandatory documents that you feel will strengthen your application, you can upload them in the "other" field of the application.

Personal data will be used exclusively for organizing the admission process and program enrolments.

In case you want to make changes to an already submitted application, please email us at admissions@fsv.cuni.cz - do NOT start another application for the same program! Duplicite applications cannot be accepted.

Application fee

The application fee is 880 CZK (approx. 35 EUR). Applications without the fully paid application fee will not be considered.

The application fee must be paid in full either by card or via bank transfer. No cash payments are possible. You will find the payment instructions at the end of your online application form. The application fee has to be paid no later than the day of the deadline in order for the application to be assessed in the particular term. There is no possibility of a fee waiver. The application fee is separate from the tuition fee; therefore, application fee must be paid even by the scholarship applicants.

When will you know your results?

All applications are evaluated by an admissions committee based on the submitted documents and materials. Successful applicants will be informed as soon as possible, within 3-4 weeks after the respective deadline.
