HOW TO WRITE A MOTIVATION LETTER

14.7.2025

Motivation letters are a mandatory part of the 2025 admission to higher and vocational pre-higher education institutions!

This text is added when submitting applications – to each separately, in any form, but taking into account the requirements of the institution.

The letter does not affect the competitive score, but it will definitely be taken into account if there are two or more applicants with the same competitive score for one place.

We advise you to prepare the texts responsibly: this is your chance to explain why you chose this particular program and show interest in studying.

When exactly to submit a motivation letter in your electronic account, how to do it, where to look for requirements and what is best to avoid – we explain in the cards below.
