Each application and the educational documents are evaluated individually and the admission committee for the programme reserves a right to reject an application if there are notable deficiencies in the applicant's advanced mathematics skills.

About the mathematics curriculum

For us to receive a thorough understanding of your mathematical abilities, you must attach your official upper secondary mathematics curriculum to your application. The document must be an official one, meaning that it has been published by an institution, board or ministry, for example.

A curriculum contains a list of study objectives, courses and course contents; it is a study plan. A curriculum is not equivalent to the transcript of records. Please note that the curriculum must cover the complete duration of the upper secondary studies.
