&lt;h5 class="fw-bold mb-1" style="color: #2543A0;"&gt;Important Notice&lt;/h5&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li class="mb-0"&gt;Candidates may apply for the admission procedure for multiple graduate study programmes at the Faculty of Food Technology and Biotechnology, stating their study priority in the application form.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li class="mb-0"&gt;The minimum cost is &lt;strong style="color:#2543A0;"&gt;€25.00&lt;/strong&gt; (application for &lt;strong&gt;two&lt;/strong&gt; graduate study programmes).&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li class="mb-0"&gt;
	&lt;p class="mb-2"&gt;Each additional study programme application costs an additional &lt;strong style="color:#2543A0;"&gt;€13.00&lt;/strong&gt;. Proof of payment (copy of payment slip) must be attached when applying for the admission procedure for each of the selected study programmes.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li class="mb-0"&gt;
	&lt;p class="mb-2"&gt;* Candidates who have completed their undergraduate study at the University of Zagreb, Faculty of Food Technology and Biotechnology do not need to submit documents under points 2., 3., 4. and 5.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div class="pbf-box pbf-blue-box"&gt;&lt;span class="pbf-box-title"&gt;Candidates who are not citizens of the Republic of Croatia&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;p class="mb-0"&gt;It is necessary to submit a certificate of academic recognition of foreign higher education qualifications (&lt;a class="pbf-link" href="https://www.unizg.hr/studiji-i-studiranje/upisi-stipendije-priznavanja/akademsko-priznavanje-inozemnih-visokoskolskih-kvalifikacija/" target="_blank"&gt;more about the procedure&lt;/a&gt;), and a &lt;strong&gt;certificate of Croatian language proficiency&lt;/strong&gt; (passed Croatian language on the state matura or passed B2 level exam). The exam is conducted by the National Centre for External Evaluation of Education (&lt;a href="https://www.ncvvo.hr/osiguranje-kvalitete-obrazovanja/ispit-hrvatski-jezik-ini-b2-ispit-za-potvrdivanje-znanja-hrvatskoga-jezika-razine-b2-za-upis-nehrvatskih-drzavljana-na-visoka-ucilista-u-republici-hrvatskoj/"&gt;more about the procedure&lt;/a&gt;). The exam can also be taken at the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences (&lt;a href="https://croaticum.ffzg.unizg.hr/?page_id=1051&amp;amp;lang=hr"&gt;more about the procedure&lt;/a&gt;).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div class="pbf-box pbf-blue-box" style="padding: 15px 25px;"&gt;
&lt;p class="mb-0" style="font-weight: 700; color: #2543A0;"&gt;Applications without the required information &lt;u&gt;will not be considered&lt;/u&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div class="pbf-box pbf-green-box"&gt;&lt;span class="pbf-box-title"&gt;The admission procedure for graduate study programmes is based on:&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;ol class="pbf-list"&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Relative average grade (r)&lt;/strong&gt; which is the ratio of the candidate's achieved average grade and the average grade of all students of the completed home study programme (number of points = r × 100);&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Duration of the completed study programme&lt;/strong&gt; (number of points calculated under (1) is multiplied by 1 for 3 years; 0.95 for 4; 0.90 for 5; 0.85 for 6 for completed undergraduate study);&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Special achievements&lt;/strong&gt; (Rector's Award, Dean's Award, sporting achievements – up to 10 points);&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="/images/50038788/Sukladnost studija.pdf"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Compatibility&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; of the completed study with the undergraduate study programmes of the University of Zagreb, Faculty of Food Technology and Biotechnology for specific graduate study programmes.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Based on the points achieved, a ranking list is created for each study programme.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

				&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
