The Unified Entrance Exam (UFE)

Only for Ukrainian citizens.

From 2019, according to the rules of the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine, applicants for a Master’s specialization in Computer Science must compile a mandatory UFE for a foreign language (in the case of the master’s program “Data Science” of UCU – English).

Pay attention to the following important issues regarding the passing of the UFE in 2021:

  • The Ministry of Education and Science approved only one day for the passing of the UFE: 22nd of July, 2022
  • If the entrant has not passed the UFE, he/she will not be allowed to submit documents and pass other exams. (In this case, it is possible to study on the program only without being a student  ).
  • You can pass the UFE at any higher educational institution, where there is a specialty “computer science”. It is not necessary to come to Lviv and to UCU.
  • The registration for the UFE is carried out personally through the admission committee of the university in which you decided to pass it.
  • UFE is valid everywhere on the territory of Ukraine and its results can be submitted for admission to all universities having the corresponding specialty.
  • You can view the task from last year UFE by the link
