The faculty decides on admission. For many programmes you take an entrance exam; at arts institutions, an aptitude exam.
Some faculties in Slovakia and Czechia replace or supplement their own exams with the National Comparative Exams (NSZ), run by the company Scio. They take place seven times a year, also online. The faculty's admission conditions tell you whether it accepts them.
