Frequently Asked Questions about the Bachelor’s Degree Admissions Process

Under what conditions is it possible to be admitted to a Bachelor’s degree programme without sitting an entrance examination?

Criteria for exemption from entrance examinations

I am studying at the Faculty of Informatics, Masaryk University (FI MU), or I have previously studied at FI MU. Can I be exempted from the entrance examination for a Bachelor’s degree programme?

Applicants who have previously studied or are currently studying at the Faculty of Informatics, Masaryk University, may be admitted to a Bachelor’s programme solely on the basis of their TSP results.

How do I apply for an exemption from the entrance examination on the basis of the National Comparative Examinations? The dates for the National Comparative Examinations are also after the deadline for submitting exemption applications.

Upload the completed application for exemption from the entrance examination to your online application by 28 February 2027. You will find the application form within your application. Please state in the form the dates of the exams you plan to sit. The faculty accepts results from exams taking place up to and including 20 March 2027.

I have passed the National Comparative Examination. Do I need to send a certified copy of my SCIO certificate along with my written application?

No, in this case it is sufficient to include the completed application form in your application. However, you must give SCIO, the organisation that runs the National Comparative Examination, consent to disclose your results to the Faculty of Informatics.

I will be taking the IQ test organised by Mensa SR. What should I do?

If you achieve a score of 130 or higher in the test, you must submit a written application for exemption from the entrance examination, together with a scan of your certificate, by 28 February 2027 at the latest. At the same time, you must provide proof of your secondary school grade point average by the same date; this must not exceed 1.5. You must provide proof of your grade point average in the form of a transcript of marks, certified by your secondary school (stamp and signature), showing the calculated average. This is the overall average of all marks on your school report for Years 1–3 at the end of the school year and for Year 4 at the end of the first term.

Can I submit a request for exemption from the written entrance examination electronically?

Yes, we prefer this method; please upload the completed written application to the online application form as an attachment by 28 February 2027.

What does it mean to be among the top 20 per cent in the National Comparative Test?

The overall percentile you achieved must be 80 or higher.

Are secondary school grades or, where applicable, A-level results taken into account for admission?

Your secondary school grade point average is only required if you are applying for exemption from the entrance examination and your IQ test result is at least 130. You must provide proof of your average mark in the form of a transcript of marks, certified by your secondary school (stamp + signature), showing the calculated average. This is the overall average of all marks on the school reports for Years 1–3 at the end of the school year and for Year 4 at the half-term.

Will results from competitions and academic contests from previous years also be taken into account for admission without an entrance exam?

Yes, we also take results from previous years into account for admission. However, the oldest results may be from 2025, with the exception of the IQ test, which remains valid indefinitely.

Is the NSZ also held in Slovakia?

Yes, SCIO also organises the tests in Slovakia (Bratislava, Žilina, Košice) http://www.scio.cz/

Is it possible to study on a blended learning programme?

No, only full-time study is available.

Can I apply for more than one programme?

Yes, you can. You must complete a separate online application form for each programme and pay the administration fee for each one.

I would like to apply for an exemption from the entrance examination. Is it sufficient to simply tick the relevant box on the online application form?

No, you must also submit a written request with your application by 28 February 2027 at the latest. You will find the request form within the application. If you are meeting the criteria for the SAT, AP, IQ test, Cyber Competition, Haxagon Skirmish, CyberGame Slovakia, Olympiad or SOČ, you must also submit the relevant supporting documents by the same date.
