The overview of the Masters in Bruges, Natolin and Tirana is available, while more information concerning admissions and scholarships can be found here: https://www.coleurope.eu/admission

All applicants to the College must hold a university degree. Candidates must submit a formal application for admission, which consists of an online application.

Applications need to be submitted with all the requested supporting documents before the closing date.

All applicants, including students who do not apply for a scholarship, must indicate their selection committee (in principle according to their nationality) in the application form. Should there be no selection committee, please select ‘No selection committee – College of Europe’. This does not apply to MATA (Master in Transatlantic Affairs).

Recommendation letters are in the form of online recommendation questionnaires that are automatically sent to your nominated referees via email through your online application.

• In the online application under sections “Reference 1” and “Reference 2” you have to indicate who your 2 referees are. Once you completed the referee contact information and clicked on the “send reference request” button your referees will receive an automatic email with a link leading to the reference form that they need to complete and submit.
• The reference form exists out of 2 parts. The 4 required fields of part 1 have to be completed. Part 2 can be completed and/or your referee can choose to upload a reference letter which he/she can upload at the bottom of the reference form.
• When the referee has submitted his/her reference form you will be informed automatically by email. Deadline date for the referee to submit the reference form is the 20th of January 2027 at 23:59.
• Please note that the Admissions Office is not authorized to accept references sent by email/post either from the applicant or directly from the referee.
• In case the referee does not receive your request by email please advise him/her to check his/her spam/junk folder (& the Promotions tab – Gmail account). If the message is not in that folder then try to resend your request. If that does not work please contact the Admissions Office.
• Referees who did not submit a reference, will receive 1 automatic reminder just before the deadline.
