AGH University of Krakow Admission 2027

Admission at a glance

AGH University of Krakow is a technical university based in Krakow, organised through a Department for International Students that runs a separate recruitment track for candidates without Polish citizenship. Admission for most fields is decided by an admission rate calculated on a 0 to 1,000-point scale, built mainly from the candidate's converted secondary-school grades; a candidate is admitted only once their rate clears the threshold published for that specific field and recruitment cycle, which for 2026/2027 bachelor's programmes ranged from about 426 to 880 points depending on the field. Candidates holding a Polish, IB, EB, or an EU/EFTA/OECD/Ukraine/China secondary certificate are not required to sit AGH's own mathematics entrance exam; a candidate from any other education system must sit this exam, and the result substitutes for the advanced-mathematics component of the admission rate, with 30% treated as a pass. The university's e-Rekrutacja system converts foreign grades onto AGH's own 0-100% scale before the rate is calculated. A candidate preliminarily qualified for more than one field may register for only one. Tuition is billed per semester rather than per year, fixed separately for each of AGH's English-taught programmes, and recruitment runs in up to three cycles a year as places remain open after the first.

Requirements

Bachelor

• A secondary school certificate; Polish, IB, EB and EU/EFTA/OECD/Ukraine/China certificates are converted directly without an extra exam, while other applicants must sit AGH's own mathematics entrance exam (30% minimum pass) unless mathematics was already studied at an equivalent advanced level.
• An admission rate of at least 300 out of 1,000 points overall, and at or above the specific field's own published threshold for the recruitment cycle (426 to 880 points across fields in 2026/2027).
• English proficiency for English-taught programmes: IELTS 5.5, TOEFL iBT 87, or an accepted exemption for holders of specific national certificates.

Master

• A bachelor's degree or equivalent entitling further study at master's level in Poland, with grades converted to AGH's own scale.
• The same English proficiency requirement as bachelor level, with the same exemptions.
• Programme-specific requirements set by the admitting faculty.
