Bachelor degree at SAU
Admission to the bachelor's programs is based on the results of entrance examinations.
The city campus of SAU provides students with countless opportunities for work and recreation — from sitting in a coffee shop with a laptop to internships at large companies. Adapazari has a well developed entertainment infrastructure, but the rhythm of the big city can be distracting for some students. University students have access to the library. It contains a collection of scientific papers, textbooks and fiction. Thanks to international exchange programs at SAU, students can communicate with representatives of different countries and nationalities and thus expand their own horizons. And, the university contributes to this by regularly holding joint events for local and foreign students.
