The university only accepts certificates which are equivalent to the Hungarian certificate of matriculation, thus appropriate for continuing one’s studies in university education. If the certificate is not in English, the university needs an official translation, which could be a translation by the secondary school as well. If the applicant completes their secondary education during the current term and their certificate is not issued before the application deadline, a proof of student status or a certification, which verifies that the applicant will receive matriculation is required instead. In case of being accepted as a student, however, the applicant must present their certificate of matriculation upon enrolment at the latest. This program is not available for Hungarian citizens. You must take the original entry qualification documents along with you when you finally go to the university.

Overview
The aim of the program is to train specialists in Portuguese, Brazilian and African Portuguese cultures and literatures. At the beginning of the Portuguese studies we offer very intensive language classes for students who do not speak Portuguese. After the history of Portugal and the Portuguese world, Brazil and PALOP (Portuguese Language Speaking African) countries, we introduce students to the literature of Portugal and the Portuguese speaking countries and offer courses about the different cultural aspects of these countries. In our specialized courses students can get to know the cinema, the theatre, the music and the fine arts of Portugal and Brazil.
Strength of program
The BA program also accepts students with no prior knowledge of Portuguese, as we have very good language teachers. Our specialty is the close cooperation with the Portuguese Camões Institute and the Galego Language Centre in Budapest, so we can offer possibilities of Portuguese Language Exam and learning Galego and Catalan language and culture.
This BA program lasts 3 years. The program is divided into two modules: the first year as a foundation module, the second and third years as the main module. At the end of each period there are complex examinations. At the end of the foundation module, students take a language proficiency examination and at the end of the main module they attempt the final examination. Note that the program does not offer teaching qualifications.
