Things you need to know before filling out your application!

You can find some essential information as well as tips on filling out the application form in our Admissions Form Guide. Please make sure that you consult this guide while you are working on your application.

Disclaimer

Milestone has two application rounds, the first one in February and the second one in March. Beware that the number of available places in the Milestone Programme in the second round are dependent on the number of applicants accepted in the first round, therefore we highly recommend that where possible, applicants commit to the February dates.

In order to be considered for the first round of applications, the application form must be submitted by 23:59 on 2 February 2025. While it is technically possible to submit previously saved applications even after this time, please note that all submissions are timestamped, and any application submitted at or after 00:00 on 3 February 2025 will not be considered for the first round.

There will also be a second round of applications, with the application deadline on 2 March 2025.

Therefore, we strongly recommend that applicants do not leave the form submission to the last minute. Should you experience technical difficulties with the submission of the application form outside of our office hours, please send an email, including a detailed description of the issue complete with screenshots, to admissions@msinst.org.

Academic Requirements

Applicants are reminded that in order to be accepted, a minimum academic average (“tanulmányi átlag” in the Hungarian system) of 3.5 is required for the Freshman and Access Programmes and a minimum academic average of 4 is required for the Sophomore, Junior and Senior programmes (excluding the grades for discipline – “magatartás, szorgalom”). In cases where this minimum requirement is not met because of extenuating circumstances (e.g. medical conditions), candidates are requested to contact admissions@msinst.org as early as possible to seek guidance on the options available to them.

If your school uses a numerical marking scheme different from the Hungarian standard (1-5) or a non-numerical marking scheme (i.e. poor, average, excellent etc.), please convert it using the following guidelines. Please note that when inserting a decimal number the system will only allow for decimal points (“.”), not commas (“,”). So, for example, if your GPA is 4 points and a half, instead of inserting “4,5”, please insert “4.5”.

Admission Fee

The admission fee is 20.000 HUF, which is to be paid after the submission of the admission form by credit/debit card. Please get your payment details ready before submitting the form, as you will receive the email with the payment instructions from számlázz.hu immediately after submission.

Please note that:

• we are unable to consider submissions where the admission fee has not been paid;
• the admission fee is non-refundable, regardless of the outcome of the application process.

About testing and/or interviewing online

After the candidate’s initial admission is accepted, and the candidate receives an invitation for the admissions test, the candidate should be prepared to take the test at Milestone Institute, located in Budapest, 7th district (1077 Budapest, 17.
