1 October 2026 to 31 March 2027*
Masaryk University, Faculty of Education - applications, September intakeHard deadlineDetails
The earliest of Masaryk's faculty windows to open, and the first Czech deadline of the cycle. Published as "Bachelor's programme: 1 October-31 March". Masaryk publishes this window with a day and a month but no year at all, and no academic-year heading anywhere on the page, so the year here is projected onto the September 2027 intake. Where the page's summary table and its per-faculty sections disagree, go by the faculty section, which gives the opening dates the table leaves out.

Published as "September intake: 15 December-30 April". A February intake also exists, closing 30 October - note that Informatics prints 30 October where Economics and Social Studies print 31, and the page repeats it, so it is not a one-line typo.
