How to Apply to a Lithuanian University

Posted date: 11 Mar 2022

Lithuania is one of three Baltic States. The country shares the Baltic Sea's southeastern coastlines with Latvia, Belarus, and Estonia. Vilnius is the country's capital. Lithuania is now a member of the European Union and NATO, as well as one of Europe's best bilingual and educated countries.

Colleges and universities are the two categories of academic institutions in Lithuania. Colleges are primarily concerned with providing practical training for certain occupations. Universities offer bachelor's degrees and professional certificates. In Lithuania, there are 23 universities and 24 colleges. It is a large number when compared to other European countries.

The following is the procedure for applying to a university in Lithuania.

To begin, you must have your educational documents recognised in Lithuania. The Lithuanian Centre for Quality Assessment in Higher Education is in charge of evaluating and recognising foreign school-leaving documents and higher education qualifications (CQAHE).

As a result, foreign students are highly encouraged to submit their applications as soon as possible. Procedures for document verification and subject equivalence identification can take up to a month or more.

Because each university is its own entity, it has its own application process and admission conditions. The admission requirements and prices differ from university to university, and are mostly determined by the academic programme chosen.

Find the programme that is most relevant to your previous university education. Examine your academic history. You can apply to a university's web site after your qualifications have been recognised. For the most part, all institutions' application processes can be completed online. To begin the processing of your application, you will need to submit an application fee. Before submitting an application, double-check that you have met all of the course or program's prerequisites.

Now you must wait patiently for a response from the university, as the approval process in Lithuania's university can take some time. The university will send you an acceptance letter if you are accepted to a course or programme.

If you do not qualify for a scholarship, you will be required to pay a tuition fee to confirm your acceptance to a university. Now that you are ready to study in Lithuania, you must apply for a visa at the local embassy.
