Recruitment points
The basis for determining the place on the ranking list is the recruitment rate R calculated according to the formula:
R = D + S + 2E
where the meaning of the individual symbols is as follows:
D – the grade on a graduate diploma;
S – weighted average of study grades;
E – a pass mark in the entrance examination, in the case of recruitment to the course in architecture a pass mark in the portfolio.
The grade on the university diploma (D), the weighted average of the grades of the studies (S) and the grade of the entrance examination (E) are converted into points by an appropriate weighting determined according to the grading scale of the candidate's completed university according to the following list:
- when the highest mark on the grading scale is 5 - weighting of 1.0
- when the highest mark on the grading scale is 5.5 - weighting 5/5.5
- when the highest grade on the grading scale is a 6 - weighting 5/6
The grade obtained by the candidate from the examination verifying the learning outcomes achieved during the first degree programme may be recognised as the grade from the entrance examination, provided that the candidate applies for admission to the second degree programme in the same field of study and submits the certificate of completion of higher education or the diploma supplement.
