Entry requirements for Bangladeshi students

Undergraduate (after HSC)

Bangladeshi HSC (12 years) typically needs bridging — one year of recognised bachelor's study or an entrance-qualification route. Requirements differ by university and programme, so confirm with the university early.

Postgraduate (after bachelor's)

A recognised bachelor's degree (minimum 180 ECTS / 3-year degree) in a relevant field is generally accepted directly. English-taught master's options are wider than at bachelor's level.
