Prospective applicants for bachelor’s and master’s programs often do not understand what prioritization is, what everyone is talking about, how to prioritize correctly, and why they are needed at all when applying. Let us try to answer all your questions!

What is a priority?

Prioritization of applications is your distribution of applications from the most desirable, most dreamy to the backup options. Priorities can only be set for state-funded applications, so there are only five of them for state-funded applications. In the fifth place, we put the application to the university and specialty that we consider as a backup, but in the first place – your dream, the university and specialty you want to go to the most.

How do I prioritize my goals?

Your dream should always come first. Even if your chances are minimal, you should still try the competitive situation changes every year, and applicants have different ways of passing entrance exams and submitting applications. The second and third places should be given to those institutions and specialties where you have a real chance of getting in, and the fourth and fifth places should be reserved for backup options, where you will also have the opportunity to enter by state order. How to make the right choice? Don’t hesitate to contact us! We will be happy to help you prioritize and apply correctly.

What does the priority of applications affect?

First of all, it affects your place in the ranking list if you have the same score as other applicants. Whom should I choose if I have the same score? Of course, the person who has a higher priority and a greater desire to study at this particular institution. Therefore, you should never neglect priority and prioritize at random. Sometimes it happens that an applicant sets priorities without thinking, receives a recommendation for one of the highest priorities, but in fact wanted to apply to an institution to which he or she had set a lower priority.

Do they consider all priorities?

Of course, but remember – if the top priority has been fulfilled, i.e. you have received a recommendation for a state order, all your applications are rejected and no longer participate in the competition for the budget. You can receive a recommendation only once during the admission campaign.

Can I change the priority of my applications?

Yes, but very quickly – as soon as the university processes your application, i.e. changes the status to “Registered in a higher education institution”, you lose the opportunity to change the priority. Then you can only cancel your application, but with the loss of priority, that is, only four of your applications will participate in the competition for the budget, not 5.
