Foreign students can apply, at any level:

• in the frame of an exchange programme (ERASMUS, SOCRATES or bilateral programmes)
• as an individual, without specific ties to a partner institution

If you are an exchange student, visit IRO page (International Relations Office of the University of Bucharest) for more informations.

If you are an independent student, you apply for courses or programmes individually. Proficiency in Romanian may be a prerequisite for you, depending on the programme you apply for. A preparatory year is provided to this effect. There are two types of independent students:

• scholarship holders, who come to UB through international government agreements; further information for independent scholarship holders is available at the Romanian Ministry of Education Research and Innovation, the Department of European Integration and International Relations: 12 Spiru Haret Str., Sector 1, Bucharest 010176, Romania, tel. +40-21-313 10 13; fax +40-21-312 66 14
   
• tax-paying students; further information for independent tax-paying students is available here (see page 10 in document).
