Traditionally, the highest competition is for the integrated Bachelor’s and Master’s programme in Veterinary Medicine, which this year also passed the EAEVE accreditation, a strong mark of quality. In Veterinary Medicine, two targeted scholarships are created for students with Ukrainian citizenship. These scholarships are awarded based on previous studies, with admission starting from at least the second academic year, provided that prior studies in Ukraine have been interrupted. 

Although the application deadline for Veterinary Medicine is later (4 May for applicants from outside Europe and 1 June for applicants from the European Union as well as Switzerland, Georgia, Ukraine, the United Kingdom, and Turkey), applicants should note that successful application requires completing the International Student Admission Test (ISAT). The test is held only four times a year, and this year the final accepted results are from the May session.
