Admission Campaign 2025: how to confirm your choice of study place

The admission campaign is in full swing, and many applicants have already found out whether they have been admitted to an educational institution. To be enrolled in a university, you need to confirm your choice of study place. How to do this correctly is explained by the Unified State Electronic Database on Education (EDEBO), UNN reports.

Details

You can confirm your choice of study place at the educational institution and in your electronic cabinet.

In particular, at an educational institution, you can:

– sign the application online using a QES (qualified electronic signature) or Diia.Signature;

– manually sign the printed application and upload its scanned copy to the electronic cabinet.

In the electronic cabinet:

– sign using a QES;

– sign via Diia.Signature;

– upload a scanned copy of a manually signed application (only for applicants who are in the temporarily occupied territories or abroad and cannot obtain a QES).

How to correctly apply a QES:

- in your electronic cabinet, you need to go to the section "Submitted applications for admission";

- find among the applications the one that has the status "Recommended" (for budget or contract), and check the box next to it;

- click the button "Confirm the choice of place of education".

- after that, you need to check the box to confirm familiarization with the requirement to submit a military registration document (this applies to everyone, regardless of gender);

- select the option "Apply qualified electronic signature" and click the button "Apply QES".

- in the next window, select the certification center that issued the electronic key;

- upload the file with the key, enter the password for it and click "Sign".

After that, the system should confirm that the signature has been applied. Then you should refresh the page to check if the date and time of signing have appeared.

How to confirm the choice of study place via Diia.Signature:

To use this option, you need to activate Diia.Signature in the Diia application.

To upload a scanned copy of the application, you need to:

- in the "Submitted applications for admission" module, select the required application with the status "Recommended" (budget or contract), click "Print electronic application", fill in additional data and click "Yes";

- print the application and sign it manually. If it is not possible to print, write the same application by hand and sign it;

It is important to remember that after confirming the place of study, you need to refresh the page to make sure that the application has been successfully signed and check the date and time of signing.

To cancel the confirmation of choice, you need to:

- find the required application, select it and click "Cancel confirmation of choice of place of education (cancel QES/delete file)";
