Requirements and Additional learning requirements

Enrolment

As of academic year 2025/2026 applicants seeking admission to the single-cycle Master's degree programmes in Veterinary Medicine (LM-42) no longer have to pass an admission test.

The new admission process requires applicants to enrol directly in the first semester, also known as open semester, during which they will take three courses: Chemistry and Introductory Biochemistry, Physics and Biology, each one worth 6 university credits.

At the end of the open semester, students will have to take the three end-of-course exams (there will be two exam dates for each course). Based on the marks achieved by each student in those three exams, the Ministry of University and Research will create a national ranking list, which will determine which students will be admitted to the second semester.
