Frequently Asked Questions

How can I submit my application?

Submitting your application is simple and fully online! Just click the “Apply Now” button to get started.

Why do I need to provide my mother’s name when applying?

No, it’s not because we’re trying to meet your whole family! In Hungary, your mother’s name is an official part of your identity and helps with things like residence permits, bank accounts, and other official processes.

What happens during the entrance exam?

If you’re eligible, you’ll take a short online oral exam where we test your motivation and English skills. Think of it as a friendly quiz to show off what you know. Don’t worry, all the tips and requirements are on the programme’s website, so you won’t be flying blind!

I don’t have an IELTS or TOEFL certificate. Can I still apply?

Absolutely! No need to panic, if you studied in English at high school or university, just show us an official Medium of Instruction. UM happily accepts this, along with IELTS, TOEFL, or any equivalent certificate.

I’ve been accepted! What are my next steps?

First, pay your tuition to get your Final Letter of Acceptance, your golden ticket to Hungary! Then grab your Hungarian VISA and come to UM for registration week, and let your international mentor help you settle in and explore the campus.

Our faculty has a history of more than 300 years, which proves the continuous demand for our professionals. Due to the developing economy, the demand for raw materials, energy and water is increasing, thus the mining industry must also adapt. In the near future, global challenges such as low carbon dioxide emissions, circular economy, water mining or environmentally friendly mining must be solved. The professors and researchers of our faculty prepare our students for these challenges and their solutions.
