3. National ID card (for verification purposes only).
4. One recent and signed photograph on a white background, taken from the front, in 3.5 x 4.5 cm format. If in doubt, it is best to ask a photographer to take a photo with the same parameters as those required for an ID card.
5.

These documents are also required from WSEiZ/ATA graduates applying for second-cycle (Master’s) studies.
6. Proof of payment of recruitment fees. If the payments are made through your recruitment account, they should be immediately visible in our system. Nevertheless, it is advisable to have a confirmation available (you do not need to print it – sending a file by email or presenting it at the Rector’s Office on a mobile device is sufficient).
