Description of verification and evaluation criteria:

In addition to the application form, every applicant needs to provide the following documents:

b) Transcript of records and academic results from previous studies

c) Structured CV

e) Document showing the level of English proficiency

f) Letter of recommendation

Ad a) Confirmation of studies may be substituted with a transcript of records, provided that these are from the same academic year as the application.

Ad d) The motivation letter provides a clear evidence that applicant knows the content of the program, explains a connection between content of the program and applicant's motivation, and finally clarifies how the graduation from the program can help with applicant´s next academic or professional career. The recommended length of the motivation letter is approximately 2 000 characters, including spaces.

Ad e)  Applicants should provide a certificate from one of the following standardized tests:

• IELTS Academic - the minimum required overall band score of 6.5, with band score 6.0 or above in all four components;
• TOEFL Internet-Based Test (iBT) & TOEFL iBT Home Edition - the minimum required overall score of 83, with a minimum scaled score in the four sections: reading 21, writing 22, listening 20, speaking 20;
• Cambridge ESOL FCE - minimum Cambridge English Scale Score of 180;
• Cambridge ESOL CAE and CPE receiving a certificate.

A standardized English test is not required from applicants who:

• are native English speakers;
• have studied in English at the secondary school level for at least two years;
• have studied in English at the university level for at least one year.

When a score from an English-language test is not presented, the applicants should provide a certificate/official letter of their use of English during their prior studies to support their claim. The certificate/official letter should contain contact information (an email address and a telephone number) to a person (a program director, or high school counselor) who has observed your ability to write and communicate in English and can confirm the scope of the use of the English language in the program.

Ad f) The letter of recommendation provides a clear evidence that the recommending person knows applicant's academic interests and qualities, describes and explains reasons of applicant´s choice and justifies why the application should be supported

All documents which are not originally in Czech, Slovak or English, must be officially translated into English. Only complete applications will be considered. Personal data will be used exclusively for organising the course enrollments.

Assessment: 

The admissions committee will assess applicants on the basis of the submitted documents. Firstly, the documents proving English proficiency are examined for the level required for study. Only those applications that fulfill the requirements for English proficiency are assessed further by the admissions committee and given a ranking from 0 - 100 points. The following criteria will be evaluated: (i) academic background (achieved level of education, academic results) (0-40), (ii) motivation letter and a letter of recommendation (0-40), and (iii) extracurricular activities (0-20). The point limit for accepting applicants is set by the Dean with respect to the number of applicants and the capacity of the programme.
