- Authorized (as listed on 23 October 2026)
The town is the one named in the address where, according to the register, the institution's archival documents are kept — it may not be the seat or the only campus. Education levels are the register's own terms (Vocational, Bachelor's, One-cycle, Integrated, Master's, Doctoral). "One-cycle" covers single-cycle programmes such as medicine, and "Vocational" means the register lists vocational (non-degree) programmes as well — both glosses are ours. Legal forms are as the register writes them; grouping them into public-law (LEPL) and private-law entities (companies and non-entrepreneurial legal entities) is ours. A public-law entity is not necessarily free to attend.
Periods recognised by the state (6)
Authorisation periods are the periods "recognised by the state" as NCEQE's register lists them; the latest is the one with the latest start date. They are not a statement that an institution is authorised today — check the register. The first period in the register can begin before an institution took its present form; it isn't a founding date.

What it costs, and what the register is
The register gives no fees. Each institution sets its own for foreign students; ask the institution, and check what applies to you.
NCEQE's register lists authorised higher-education institutions; when we read it, it listed no institution as unauthorised. Type and levels are the register's; it gives no enrolment, fees, entry scores or programme list.
