Deadlines and intakes
Each university and faculty sets its own admission rules and deadlines. SAIA gives the general pattern:
Before admission, your previous education must be recognised in Slovakia. Allow time for this.
Language you need
Slovak-taught degrees are free, but require Slovak. SAIA notes that universities offer preparatory Slovak language courses for international students who want to study in Slovak.
English-taught programmes are concentrated in medicine, dentistry, engineering, IT and economics. English requirements are set by each university and faculty; check the programme page.
Paying for it
Government schemes for international students coming to Slovakia. Each one sets its own rules on nationality and level.
