What you need to apply
General country requirements
This entry is general Bachelor’s admission in Kazakhstan: the university is in the catalogue but its individual programme pages are not verified yet, so the country's general requirements are shown instead.
Check the university’s own page before you plan around it.
Kazakhstan, bachelor’s
Kazakhstan invites international applicants to full-time bachelor programmes, with documents submitted through ENIC-Kazakhstan. You need a notarised translation of the attestat with its transcript, a motivational essay and a reference from your school or employer. A foreign-language certificate is required — IELTS Academic 5.5 or above, or TOEFL iBT 46 or above. Uzbek documents carry an apostille.
With an Uzbek attestat (11 years)
Straight into the first year
An Uzbek attestat generally allows direct entry — the two school systems are comparable. A language shortfall adds the preparatory department.
