Is admission to master’s studies organized by programme or by field of study?
Admission is organized at the level of the field of study. The selected field has priority in the ranking process; your programme options within that field are applied based on your admission average and the available places.
How do priorities function if I select options from different fields of study?
The field of study takes precedence. Ranking is conducted primarily within the priority field selected. If you choose options from another field, these may have lower priority compared to your main field, in accordance with the Regulation on the Organization of the Admission Competition.
When do I officially enter the admission competition?
After your file becomes eligible, you must submit the original baccalaureate diploma (the document on the basis of which you participate in the competition). Only upon submission of the original diploma is your file considered officially entered into the admission competition.
What happens if I am eligible but do not submit the original baccalaureate diploma on time?
If the original diploma is not submitted within the deadline specified in the calendar, your file will not enter the competition and you may be declared rejected, as you have not fulfilled the mandatory participation requirement.
How is the general admission average for master’s studies calculated?
The admission average is calculated as a weighted average:
- 0.30 × the overall average of the bachelor’s years of study +
- 0.40 × the bachelor’s degree examination average +
- 0.30 × the grade obtained at the oral examination.
What is the minimum admission average for master’s studies?
The minimum general admission average is 6.00.
Engineering Sciences – What is the vocational interview?
The oral examination consists of a vocational interview conducted before a three-member committee. The discussion addresses:
- previous academic studies and professional activity;
- justification of the programme choice;
- personal educational/training plan;
- career development plan.
Engineering Sciences – How is the vocational interview graded?
The committee evaluates four criteria (grades from 1 to 10, whole numbers):
- C1 (0.40) technical competencies and relevance to the master’s programme;
- C2 (0.30) motivation and alignment with the field;
- C3 (0.20) consistency with career objectives;
- C4 (0.10) communication skills and logical presentation.
Philology – Specialized Translation and Interpreting Programme: What does the oral examination involve?
The oral examination consists of two components:
- Language B (English): sight translation of a short scientific text + interview;
- Language C (French / German / Spanish – according to the selected option): sight translation + interview.
Philology (Translation and Interpreting) – What linguistic level is expected?
The evaluation targets minimum indicative proficiency levels:
- Language A (Romanian): minimum C1;
- Language B (English): minimum B2;
- Language C (FR/DE/ES): minimum B1;
Philology – How is the oral examination graded?
Each committee member awards grades from 1 to 10. The final oral examination grade is the arithmetic mean of the grades obtained for Languages B and C.
Educational Sciences – What does the oral examination involve?
The oral examination consists of an interview before a three-member committee, focusing on:
- presentation of a motivational essay;
- communication abilities;
- quality of presentation.
Educational Sciences – What does the motivational essay include?
The essay addresses professional experience, justification of programme choice, expectations upon completion of the programme, and career development plans.
When is the ranking of candidates conducted?
Ranking is carried out after formal entry into the competition (eligibility + submission of original diplomas), based on the selected field of study and the admission average.
What statuses may appear after the competition?
Following ranking, your status may become “Admitted” or “Rejected,” depending on the applicable regulations and the availability of places. The examination ID remains unchanged throughout the entire process.
What follows after being declared “Admitted”?
The next stage is enrolment, immediately following the competition (in accordance with the calendar). During this stage, original documents must be submitted and the required payments must be made (e.g., the enrolment fee of RON 150 and, where applicable, the first instalment of the tuition fee for tuition-based places), as specified in the published instructions.
Who verifies my file?
Files are reviewed by the admission committees or sub-committees, which validate the submitted documents and the accuracy of the provided information.
Can I change my options after submitting the original diplomas?
No. After the registration period has closed and the competition stages have commenced, options may no longer be modified, in accordance with the regulations and the admission calendar.
If I apply for a foreign-language-taught programme, what must I demonstrate?
You must demonstrate proficiency in the language of instruction by means of:
- educational documents issued in the respective language (from Romania or abroad); or
- an internationally recognized language proficiency certificate.
What if I do not hold such documents or certificates?
In this case, you must take a qualifying language proficiency test, assessed as “pass/fail.” The result of this test does not contribute to the admission average.
Which certificates are accepted (common examples)?
For English (examples): Cambridge PET/FCE/CAE/CPE, IELTS, TOEFL, TOEIC, Pearson PTE, Trinity ISE, ECL, as well as a B2-level certificate obtained at the baccalaureate examination or certificates issued by bilingual high school programmes (in accordance with the regulation).
