Entry requirements for Irish students

  • There is no Leaving Cert points or grade conversion: the University of Debrecen asks for a completed secondary school certificate and then admits students through its own entrance exam. The Leaving Certificate should meet the school-leaving requirement, but confirm with admissions how your results should be submitted.
  • Online written and oral entrance exam in Mathematics, so Higher Level Maths is strong preparation.
  • English at B2 level: TOEFL 513 (paper-based) or IELTS 5.5, or assessment at the entrance interview. Confirm with admissions whether Leaving Cert English is accepted.
