Exam Registration Form
Admission fee: €20

On the day of the exam, bring:
  • Originals of all documents mentioned above
  • Your digital photo (600×800 px, max 1 MB)
The exam consists of three test sections (30 minutes each):
  • Chemistry
  • Biology

This is a mandatory procedure required for official admission to the university. It enables your registration in the state student database.
You may:
  • complete the registration yourself on the web platform, or
  • do it onsite on exam day (after results are announced) with the help of our staff — it takes 15–30 minutes.
Cost of the procedure — €70
This is an official fee for registration in the state electronic system, used to verify your documents and generate the official invitation to study.
This amount is not paid to the university — it is paid directly to the organization administering the system.

Payment is made online by you using your own bank card (Visa or MasterCard). If needed, our specialists can assist you with the procedure or consult you remotely.

Important: As your studies will take place at the KMU Polish Campus in Katowice, this registration is formal for Polish and EU citizens (a visa is not required). However, registration in the system is mandatory for participation in the educational process and proper student recordkeeping.

The procedure consists of two parts:
1. Registration of your digital account
  • Free of charge
  • Mandatory for all
  • We will complete this with you during your visit
2. Uploading documents and their verification (€70)
  • Can be done later — either during a second visit or remotely
  • Our staff can assist you if needed
Required documents for uploading:
  • Passport (+ translation if available)
  • Certificate of Complete General Secondary Education (+ translation if available)
  • Supplement to the certificate (if available) (+ translation if available)
  • Świadectwo dojrzałości (Matura) – for Polish citizens (+ translation if available)
If translations are not ready on exam day — you can upload them later.
However, please note:
Your registration in the electronic system will only be complete after the translated documents are uploaded. However, if your translations are not ready on the day of the exam, don’t worry — you can first upload the available documents, and then add the translated versions later once they are ready.
Our team is here to assist you with this process if needed.
Don’t forget to select the educational institution in the system:
Kyiv Medical University, which has a registered branch — KMU Polish Campus, located in Katowice, Poland.
Studies will be conducted offline at this campus.
For Polish citizens:
If you do not yet have translations, we can upload your matura and passport without translation, but translations must be provided later — by September 26, 2025.
If you have any questions or need assistance — our specialists are always here to help.

To complete the enrolment, your documents must be validated by KMU Verification Department.
You must obtain an apostille on the documents mentioned above:
  • Certificate of Complete General Secondary Education
  • Supplement to the certificate (if available)
  • Świadectwo dojrzałości (Matura) – for Polish citizens
An apostille is an internationally recognized stamp confirming the authenticity of the signature, official position, and seal on a document. It is required for international use, including admission to most of the universities, including ours.

Processing time in Poland:
  • Standard: 3–5 business days via Kuratorium Oświaty (Regional Education Office)

  • Świadectwo dojrzałości (matura) – for Polish citizens
A notarized translation is a certified translation, confirmed by a notary.
You can:

  • ask us to assist — on your request
Estimated cost for the full package of notarized translations: €80–90
Completion time: 2–3 days

We can send your documents for translation at any time — even on the day of the exam.
Just let us know during the exam if you need help with this.
