University Agreements

Candidates submit their application into the university online system within the deadline set by the International Office of FSV, after the faculty round the International Office forwards applications of the successful applicants to the Rectorate, which carries out the final selection of the nominated students.

The selection procedure has two rounds:

  2. University round - selection of candidates from all faculties at the CU Rectorate

Detailed information about the selection procedure can be found on the web page of the rectorate - Inter-University agreements
