Recognition of foreign education

Every person who completed education out of Slovenia and wishes to continue his/her education in the Republic of Slovenia must acquire a Decision on the recognition of foreign education in order to continue education in the Republic of Slovenia.

On the basis of the Decision on recognition of formal and non-formal knowledge, the students may apply for a reduction of the tuition fee for the current year. The reduced tuition fee can be claimed by those who have received at least 20 ECTS in a given year. The Executive Board of Alma Mater has decided that the tuition fee is reduced by 30% if 20 ECTS – 30 ECTS are recognized in each year, or by 50% if 31 ECTS – 40 ECTS are recognised in each year. Only entirely recognised study obligations can lead to reduced tuition fee. The application for reduction of tuition fees has to be submitted no later than 8 days after receiving the Decision on the recognition of study obligations, otherwise the application will not be granted.

The Commission for Student Affairs will recognize knowledge, skills or abilities that, in terms of content and complexity correspond with the whole or in part to the general and/or subject-specific competences defined by the study program, on the basis of the statutory criteria (defined in the Higher Education Act, Ur.l.RS, No. 67/1993 with amendments and Criteria for Transitions between Study Programs, Official Gazette of RS, No. 95/2010).
