For school graduates of previous years

For school graduates of previous years who want to enter a university, the admission process includes several key stages:

1. Passing the UNT (Unified national testing).
The UNT is a standardized test that evaluates the knowledge of graduates in such subjects as mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, geography, foreign languages and others. The results of the UNT play an important role in the process of admission to the university, as they determine the competitiveness of applicants.
2. Participation in the grant competition. 
After passing the UNT, applicants can participate in the competition for state educational grants. Grants are provided on a competitive basis and may cover part or all of the tuition fees. To participate in the grant competition, applicants must submit an application and submit their UNT results, as well as other documents required for a particular university.
3. Enrollment.
After completing the grant competition and reviewing applications, the university conducts the enrollment process. The decision to enroll applicants in the chosen specialty and faculty is based on the results of the UNT and the grant competition. Applicants who are accepted to the university must register and start their studies in accordance with the established deadlines.

School graduates of previous years pass the UNT in five subjects: history of Kazakhstan, reading literacy (the language of instruction), mathematical literacy, two specialized subjects. Profile subjects for educational programs of M. Kozybayev NKU can be found here.

You can participate in the UNT in May-July (to participate in the competition for awarding state educational grants) and in January, March and August (for enrollment on a paid basis).

The current deadlines for accepting applications for the UNT and the dates of the UNT are posted on the website of the National Testing Center.
