Deadlines and intakes
Your foreign secondary school certificate generally needs to be recognised before enrolment. Allow time for that and for the permit, which you cannot apply for more than three months before arrival.
Language you need
Undergraduate programmes taught in Croatian are admitted through the central online application system Postani student and require State Matura results. Study in Croatia notes that foreign citizens may be asked to take a standardised Croatian language test at level B2.
English-taught programmes, especially medicine and a range of master's degrees, set their own English requirements and often their own entrance exams. You do not need Croatian for the permit, but police administration, landlords and most student jobs outside tourism will expect at least basic Croatian.
