Application Process
Application process in steps
Before starting your online application, you will need to gather the following documents.
An up to date CV
ID (EU citizens only) or Passport
Officially translated birth certificate (English)
Apostilled / Legalised and officially translated transcript (English) of your final two years of high school *
Apostilled and officially translated transcripts in case you have obtained other academic titles *
At least one reference (e.g. from your high school tutors)
Proof of knowledge of the English language at the B2 level

The online application form provides further details on the documents required. Please note that gathering the necessary documentation and preparing your application may take a while. So make sure you start working your application well in advance of the deadline.
How do I verify the authenticity of my school / academic certificates and transcripts? If the documents are not issued by the issuing body in English, they will need to be translated in English by a sworn translator (sworn translations have legal validity and are recognized by official institutions). Then, your documents will need to be verified. According to The Hague Convention (APOSTILLE) this can be done by the relevant authority in the country where they were issued. More information can be found here.
To verify the authenticity of a document issued by a state that has not ratified the Hague Convention, the holder of the document for verification applies to the Greek Consular Authority in whose region of responsibility the document was issued so that the said Consular Authority can contact the agency that issued the document in question and verify its authenticity. If the authenticity is verified, the Consular Authority certifies the authenticity of the document. If you are unsure of which services are available for your country or the country where the document was issued, please check here.

Ensure that where the application specifies, you notarize your documents (i.e. they are apostilled).
If you apply later than the deadline, your application will be still considered if there are still vacancies. Priority will be given to those who observe the initial deadline.
If you apply earlier than the deadline, you will receive a decision letter well before that date. So make sure that you apply the soonest possible to secure a place in the programme.
Applications will be considered on a “first-come, first-served” basis and the earlier you apply, the sooner you will hear from us and secure a place in our programme. Please note that incomplete applications will NOT be considered and will be rejected.
After successfully submitting your application, the evaluation committee will consider your application in reasonable time. If you are shortlisted, you will receive an invitation for an electronic interview. Interviews will be in English.
After the interview the evaluation committee will confer and will notify you with one of the following three decision letters:
Unconditional acceptance: the committee is convinced that you meet all the requirements and you have secured a place in the programme, irrespective of further grades you may be awaiting to be issued.
Conditional acceptance: the committee believes that you are on a good trajectory to meet the requirements, but they want to see additional evidence. The additional requirements will be described in the letter and once you meet them, your conditional offer will become unconditional.
Reserve list: your application meets the standards but it fell short due to high competition in the application process. You will enter a reserve list and if a spot becomes available you will be notified.
Non-acceptance: this can occur for a number of reasons including (i) there are omissions in your application, (ii) your application does not meet certain standards, or (iii)

The fee is non-refundable if you fail to attend (unless there are proven extenuating circumstance) but will be deduced from your first tuition fee instalment.
