• Provided that the application form doesn’t get completed and adequately concluded before 30. 4. 2023, it won’t be considered as submitted at all.

• Should the regulation fee for operations associated with the application procedure not be paid in time by 30. 4. 2023 and not even in additionally established appropriate time period, the application form won’t be considered as submitted at all.

• In case you are an active student of the CU - use your already existing assigned student login or, as an equivalent, your personal student identification number, which is to be found on your student ID card under your photograph to enter the application. If you encounter any difficulties concerning your password, visit CAS, where you can obtain a new password or eventually get to know more about the Central Authentication System (CAS) as a whole.

• If you happen to be a new aspirant to studies at the CU, you had neither previously studied at any faculty, nor had filed any application for studies (even if unsuccessful), you’re going to be asked to get registered before you can continue with the application process. For the registration it is necessary to fill out your registry email, on which you’re subsequently going to receive a message containing an activation link, which will take you to a website, where you’ll be asked to come up with a secret password. This particular registration email and your personal password are to be used during the whole application process for only under these personal details you’ll be able to gain access to all your current applications. However these registration details do not serve to gain access to other modules of the Student Information System (SIS).

• If you’ve already filled out your application form and you try to enter the system again with your particular registration email and password, you’ll be able to see your name in the right hand corner and after clicking on ‘My Applications’ you’ll access an overview of all that you’ve submitted so far. Unless you use the right registration email, you won’t see your name but only ‘new applicant’ in the right corner of the screen and the button ‘My applications’ won’t be available at all.

Any other and all inquiries are accessible through this link.

The official website of the 3. FM CU offers detailed information about every individual supervisor and their corresponding themes of research.
