Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions about Trust Academy
1. Is there an entrance examination for the Pre Medical Track?
No, there is no entrance examination required. The primary prerequisite is the completion of High School studies and eligibility for university studies in your home country (with no failed results in the transcripts). Proficiency in English at a B1/B2 level is also necessary.
2. What does the placement test entail?
The placement test covers Biology, Chemistry, Math, and General English. It consists of multiple-choice questions and a composition. It’s important to note that this is not an examination but rather a test to gauge your retention of High School knowledge. If you haven’t studied Biology or Chemistry, that’s perfectly acceptable.
3. Is there a scholarship or student loan available?
While there isn’t a scholarship or student loan option, Trust Academy, Budapest offers an Award of Excellence, which translates to a tuition fee refund for outstanding students. This refund amounts to 10% of the full tuition fee.
