What the register is, and what isn't here
“Listed as valid” and “listed as expired” are the register's own status (Važeća / Istekla) on the day we read it — never a statement that a programme is accredited today. Check the register before applying.
AKOKVO's register records accreditation only: no fees, entry requirements, student numbers or graduate outcomes per institution are published with it, so this is not a matcher. Fees are set by each institution and are not in AKOKVO's register; ask the institution, and check what it charges citizens of other countries.
AKOKVO's list says the University of Montenegro offers most programmes and that the rest are at private universities, private faculties and one state faculty — it doesn't say which independent faculty is the state one, so none is labelled.
The 11 institutions
Programme entries listed as valid in the register on 24 October 2026, by level, and the number of programmes and the latest re-accreditation date on AKOKVO's own list of institutions (September 2026).

Three different counts of “programmes” exist and are kept apart here: the register's entries listed as valid when we read it; the total AKOKVO's list of institutions states in its text; and the sum of that list's own tables, which is lower. They are different snapshots and are never added together. Register: 294 entries listed as valid. AKOKVO's list, in its text: 295 programmes (120 bachelor's, 133 master's, 42 doctoral), 180 of them at the University of Montenegro; in its tables: 284. Integrated and earlier-system specialist or magistar entries are counted in "Listed valid" but have no column of their own.

† The register writes dates in several formats and mixes day-first and month-first forms of nn/nn/yyyy (one row reads 30/11/2023 for the decision and 11/30/2028 for the end). Where a date could be read either way it is shown exactly as written.
For scale: AKOKVO's page, citing the statistical office MONSTAT, gives 20,656 students enrolled at all levels in 2025/26 (66% of them at the University of Montenegro) and 3,645 graduates in 2025. Neither figure is published per institution with the register.
