The admission procedure for postgraduate students at the University of Cyprus takes place through the Graduate School which announces available programmes and places. In addition to announcing the number of places available in each field of study and the application procedure, the eligibility criteria for candidates are also mentioned, as well as other required documents that must be attached to the application:

• Graduates of the University of Cyprus must have a GPA of at least 7.5/10; graduates of Greek Universities must have a GPA of at least 7.0/10; graduates of UK Universities at least second-class honours (at least 2.1 classification). Similar GPA is required for graduates of other Cyprus Universities (for example, at least 3.4 on a 4.0 scale) and other equivalent foreign qualifications. Exceptionally, by decision of the Departmental Board, graduates with a lower GPA and remarkable professional performance may be admitted at a percentage not exceeding 20 per cent of selected candidates. Previous experience will be taken into account in the application of these requirements.
• Certified very good knowledge of the English language is a precondition of admittance (i.e, IELTS overall grade of 7.0 or other recognized equivalent English Proficiency certificate). Applicants who are considered native speakers or have studied at university level for at least one year in a predominantly English-speaking country are exempted from English Language Proficiency certification.

However, one letter of recommendation could be provided by an employer or supervisor who is familiar with the candidate’s professional work and personality. The referees will receive a relevant e-mail requesting submission of the reference letter through the UCY online application system. The Department may request additional confidential information from referees.
