All candidates who meet the conditions of the competition will be invited to take part in simultaneous testing in one of the 3 cities across BiH (Sarajevo, Mostar, Banja Luka), which will take place in mid-February 2024.

*In case of inability of holding tests in cities throughout BiH, the UWC National Committee of BiH will promptly inform all candidates about changes and alternative solutions.

In the first part of the selection process, the total number of points is determined:

  • Grades from high school (general success) - 30%
  • Entrance exam (literature, mathematics, English, history, general knowledge) – 30%
  • Interview/Group work - 40%

Second round:

After processing the results of the first part, the commission determines the point threshold in accordance with the statistical distribution, on the basis of which the number of students who will be invited to the final selection is determined. The final selection will take place during the weekend of mid March, 2024.

The total number of points in the second and final round is calculated as follows:

  • Interview - 70%
  • Group work – 30%
