After being admitted and enrolled at Masaryk University, students who have previously studied at the Faculty of Medicine, Masaryk University (MED MUNI) may apply for recognition of certain courses completed as part of their previous, unfinished studies at MED MUNI. In accordance with Section 12 of the Study and Examination Regulations, compulsory and elective courses, including their credit value, may be recognised provided that no more than three years have elapsed between their completion and enrolment in the current study programme.

Courses completed at any other university or institution cannot be recognised, regardless of the duration or level of the previous study. Students with previous studies at other institutions will therefore always be enrolled in the first year of the study programme.
