Co-funding tuition fees in doctoral studies top

The co-funding of doctoral studies will be open to all students of the University of Primorska who meet the requirements from the Decree on co-Financing of doctoral studies and Criteria for the selection of candidates for co-funding tuition fees in doctoral studies at the University of Primorska.

In the academic year 2024/25, candidates for admission to the doctoral study programme will be able to show interest in co-funding the study. Candidates for enrollment can express interest in co-funding for doctoral studies by signing the Statement of eligibility for co-funding tuition fees in the academic year 2024/25.

The amount of co-funding will be published after the enrollment in the doctoral studies, which is expected in November. The amount of co-funding depends on the number of enrolled students who meet the criteria and the amount of funding for co-funding the doctoral study.

For more information please visit the website of the University of Primorska.

Year Plustop

What is Year Plus?

Year Plus enables foreign students to improve their academic performance by re-enrolling in the first year due to the reason of insufficient knowledge of the Slovenian language in which the study process takes place.

Year Plus for the purpose of re-enrolment in the 1st year of study must obtain at least 24 ECTS credit points from the study obligations of the programme in which they are enrolled, plus at least 6 ECTS credit points from the Slovenian language exam. Students must accumulate a total of at least 30 ECTS.

Target group of Year Plus

Foreign students who do not speak Slovene or whose knowledge of the Slovenian language is inadequate, are eligible to enrol in Year Plus provided that they are enrolled for the first time in one of the study programmes of UP FAMNIT conducted in the Slovenian language. They must be enrolled in the study programme before enrolling in Year Plus.

Obligations of a student enrolled in Year Plus

In the first year of study, students must pass the exam of the Slovenian language course with at least 6 ECTS credit points. In addition to the Slovenian language course, they must complete other study obligations in the curriculum of the study programme in which they are enrolled, in the amount of at least 24 ECTS credits (in total 30 ECTS). Any remaining study obligations from the first year may be completed by students in the next academic year, when they are still enrolled in the first year of the same study programme.

Rights of a student enrolled in Year Plus

Students enrolled in Year Plus will be allowed to re-enrol in the 1st year at the end of the current academic year (extension of student status) provided that the student has obtained at least 30 ECTS credits, including at least 6 ECTS credit points from the Slovenian language exam.

Enrolment in Year Plus

Students may enrol in Year Plus after enrolment at the faculty, but no later than 30 October of the current year. The application form will be sent to students who have the right to enrol in Year Plus by Student Services.

Recognition of foreign diplomastop

The procedure of recognition with a view to granting access to education is OBLIGATORY FOR ALL CANDIDATES WHO ARE HOLDERS OF FOREIGN DIPLOMAS and have not yet undergone the procedure of recognition. The recognition procedure is a procedure by which holders of foreign diplomas are issued decisions recognising their right to continue education in the Republic of Slovenia.

Certificates that do not require recognition are those from the former Yugoslav republics obtained before 25 June 1991 and International Baccalaureate (IB) certificates (the latest are equivalent to matura certificates obtained in the Republic of Slovenia).

For further information on the system of recognizing foreign diplomas see the ENIC NARIC CENTRE Slovenia.

Recognition procedure

The procedure shall be initiated by the holder of a foreign diploma. The application for recognition is part of the application for enrolment in the study programme.

The recognition procedure is conducted as follows:

The decision shall be issued and published in the web portal eVŠ within two months after the date of receipt of a complete application. The procedure of recognition is free of charge for the candidate.

Documentation for the procedure of recognition

Candidates must upload on the web portal eVŠ the following documents:

  • the diploma to be recognised;
  • if the candidate will have to submit the original diploma, it must be legalised* on the basis of:
  • a certified Slovene translation of the diploma referred to in Item 1 (candidates should verify in the Student Services if the translation is necessary);
  • copy of the diploma supplement or some other evidence on the contents and duration of education (transcript or records);
  • a short chronological description of the entire education prepared by the candidate;
  • additional supporting documents will be required if the application cannot be processed on the basis of submitted documents.

* The legalisation of the diploma is not required for the following countries: Austria, Bulgaria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, France, Greece, Croatia, Hungary, Macedonia, Romania.

We kindly ask all candidates to contact the Student Services before starting the recognition procedure.
