About the course

A 3.5-year (7-semester, 210 ECTS) English-taught bachelor’s degree in finance and accounting at the Faculty of Finance and Accountancy on the Zugló campus. It covers accounting, business mathematics, economics, corporate finance, controlling and financial analysis, and ends with a 20-credit professional internship. The degree is ACCA-accredited, and graduates qualify as an ‘Economist in Finance and Accounting’.

Entry requirements for Irish students

  • You need a completed secondary school-leaving qualification (‘High school / secondary education’), so the Leaving Certificate is the entry qualification. There is no published Leaving Cert points conversion and no minimum grades are listed; ask BUEB admissions how your H1-H8 / O1-O8 grades will be assessed.
  • The course page does not mention an entrance exam, interview or a specific maths requirement, but the course includes business mathematics, so solid Leaving Cert Maths is a good idea.
  • English proficiency is required, but no minimum level or accepted test is published for this course. Ask BUEB whether Leaving Cert English is accepted as proof or whether a test such as IELTS is needed.

Deadline for Irish/EU applicants: Deadlines for 2027 entry have not been published yet. For September 2026 entry the university’s application portal gave 15 June as the deadline for EU applicants (7 June for non-EU). Expect a similar deadline for 2027, but check the portal (apply.uni-bge.hu) when applications open, usually around November. You apply on the university’s own portal, not through felvi.hu..

Costs

  • The university’s programme page lists the EU tuition fee as HUF 690,000 per semester (about HUF 1,380,000, roughly €3,500, a year; the euro amount changes with the exchange rate). The application portal shows a flat €3,000 per semester and a one-time €150 application fee. This is NOT a tuition-free course. These are the current (2026/27 cycle) figures; check the fee for 2027 entry with the university before applying.
The university now calls itself Budapest University of Economics and Business (BUEB), so search for that name as well as Budapest Business University or BGE. You apply directly to the university, not through a central system, and the course is fee-paying. The ACCA accreditation can give exemptions from some ACCA professional exams.
