\"\"Students who have successfully pursued their studies at other accredited universities (in Hungary or abroad) can apply for admission without being obliged to take an entrance examination. Subjects of previous studies with identical or at least 75% similar content to the subjects included in the curriculum of Semmelweis University Faculty of Health Sciences can be accredited, meaning that admission to an upper year might be possible.<\/span> Transfer students are required to prove their <\/span>current student status <\/span>and <\/span>previous study results. <\/span>The previous study results will be examined by Semmelweis Credit Transfer Committee. On the basis of this examination it will be decided how many of the previously completed subjects get accredited, and in which year the applicant can start his\/her studies.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

A credit transfer application should be submitted before the start of the subject registration period to know exactly what have been accredited and exactly what needs to be completed to gain one\u2019s target qualification.<\/p>\n

Who can apply for student transfer?<\/a><\/p>\n
\n

There are three conditions that must be met in order to become eligible.<\/p>\n

1. Students need to have active\/passive student status at the moment of the transfer.<\/p>\n

2. Students can be only accepted if they are transferring from a health care related programme (Medicine, Pharmacology, Dentistry, Physiotherapy, Nursing, Midwifery Programme, etc.)<\/p>\n

3. Students must have at least two closed active semesters spent in higher education (only health care related programmes are considered).<\/p>\n

Those who fail to fulfil these 3 conditions cannot apply for a transfer but have to go through the regular entrance procedure. If the Study and Examination Committee accepts the applicant as a transfer student, he\/she will be acquitted of the entrance procedure.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
