Applying to a Georgian university: step by step

  1. Choose a program and university. Use our programs and universities pages, or ask us to shortlist options for your grades and budget.
  2. Send your documents. Fill in the online application form and upload a passport scan and your school certificate or degree with transcripts.
  3. University assessment. The university reviews your documents and may ask for an English test or a short online interview.
  4. Offer letter. If you are accepted, the university issues an offer or admission letter.
  5. Recognition and enrollment. Your previous education is officially recognised in Georgia and the university registers you with the Ministry of Education. We prepare the translations and notarised copies.
  6. Student visa. Most students apply for a Georgian study visa (category D3) online. Some nationalities can enter visa-free and then apply for a residence permit. See our visa and residence permit guide.
  7. Arrival. On arrival you complete registration at the university and apply for a temporary residence permit for study.

Documents you usually need

  • Passport (valid for the whole first year, ideally longer)
  • School-leaving certificate (12th grade) or bachelor’s degree, with transcripts
  • English certificate if you have one
  • Passport-style photo
  • For applicants under 18: birth certificate and parents’ consent

When to apply

Most programs start in September, and many also accept students for a February or March intake. Recognition and visa steps take several weeks, so apply at least three months before the start date.

University application process in Georgia

What is the first step?

Choose a specific program and university, then verify its current academic, language, document, fee, and deadline requirements. Requirements are not identical across institutions.

Which documents are usually needed?

A passport, school certificate or prior degree, and academic transcript are commonly requested. Depending on the institution and level, applicants may also need photographs, English evidence, an interview, a motivation letter, or transfer records. Foreign-language documents may require Georgian translation and notarization.

How long does admission take?

Timing varies with the university, document completeness, education recognition, intake, and immigration process. Apply early and use the university’s current written timeline rather than assuming a guaranteed completion date.
