How to apply in Latvia

The same rules for every institution in Latvia; State Police College's own programme pages govern the exact dates and scores. Guide checked 24 Sep 2026.

Deadlines and intakes

Two intakes: autumn (main) and spring (fewer programmes). Study in Latvia gives typical deadlines:

Each university sets its own deadline, often through DreamApply. For non-EU applicants, the realistic deadline is earlier than the published one: add the Academic Information Centre recognition, the PMLP review of up to eight weeks, the embassy appointment and D visa, and aim to hold an offer by April for September.

Language you need

Latvia has a broad English-taught offer, especially in medicine, business and engineering. English requirements are set by each university; check the programme page for the tests and scores it accepts.

Your previous diplomas must be assessed by the Academic Information Centre, Latvia's recognition body, before admission.

Student reviews: none yet for State Police College. If you study or studied here, yours would be the first.

How we check reviews

Every reviewer confirms their email address with a one-time link, and a person at Studies Multiverse reads each review before it appears. We publish good and bad reviews on the same terms, never edit them, never pay for them, and an institution cannot remove a review by paying us. Reviews sent from the institution’s own email domain are not accepted. Institutions can reply below a review. See our terms.
