Sit the Pavol Jozef Šafárik University Exam in the UK with Gateway Medics
Students applying to Pavol Jozef Šafárik University (UPJŠ) for Medicine or Dentistry in 2026 now have a rare opportunity to sit the official entrance exam in Manchester — without needing to travel to Slovakia.
Gateway Medics is hosting the UPJŠ in-person entrance exam in Manchester on 18 April 2026, allowing students to complete this mandatory exam locally and secure their place at one of Slovakia’s leading medical universities.
Why This Manchester Exam Matters
UPJŠ requires applicants to sit the entrance exam in person.
Without Gateway Medics, students would normally need to:
- Travel to Slovakia to Kosice
- Pay for flights, accommodation, and living expenses
- Take time off school or work
- Lose valuable revision time due to travel
By sitting the exam in Manchester, you can:
- Save significant travel costs
- Avoid unnecessary stress
- Use your time efficiently to revise
- Sit the exam in a familiar environment
This makes the Manchester exam the most cost-effective and practical option for UK-based and international students.
