Studying without barriers
Every student should have a fair opportunity to participate in university life and demonstrate their knowledge. If a disability, long-term health condition, specific learning difficulty, attention-related condition or another accessibility need affects your studies, you do not have to navigate the challenges alone.
We can help you explore the support available at Corvinus and identify reasonable adjustments based on your individual needs. Support may include adjusted examination conditions, accessible course materials, assistive technology or guidance through the application process.
On this page, you can find information about:
- who may request accessibility support
- the types of support that may be available
- the supporting documents you may need
- how to request support
- individual consultations and other accessibility services
Support is considered individually, taking into account both your supporting documents and how your condition affects your studies.
What information do you need?
- I am applying to Corvinus – see “Support during admission”.
- I am already enrolled at Corvinus – sign in to read the Accessibility Guide for Enrolled Students.
- I am an exchange student nominated by a partner university – see “Exchange students”.
- I am a freemover student – after enrolment, follow the same process as degree students.
- I am not sure which process applies to me – book an individual consultation.
What support may be available?
Support may include extra time in exams, an alternative assessment format, assistive technology, accessible materials, a quieter examination environment etc. Available support is assessed individually and is not granted automatically.
What supporting documents do I need?
You will normally need an official and complete document confirming your condition and explaining how it affects your studies. Requirements may differ for applicants, enrolled students and exchange students.
Information about your condition and supporting documents is handled confidentially and is only shared with authorised University staff for the purpose of assessing and providing support.
Support during the admissions process
If you need an adjustment during the admission process, contact the person or unit named in the admission information as early as possible. Submit the required request and supporting document by the relevant deadline.
Admission arrangements are separate from accessibility support after enrolment. After you enrol and activate your student status, sign in to read the Accessibility Guide for Enrolled Students.
Required supporting documents
Please submit an official and complete document that:
- confirms your condition;
- was issued by a qualified professional or authorised institution.
We cannot accept:
- preliminary documents
- short summaries or extracts
- incomplete documents
- documents that do not clearly confirm the condition
If your document has an expiry date or requires periodic review, please also submit the most recent review or updated document.
If the document was issued outside Hungary, please submit the original document together with a Hungarian or English translation.
Accessibility support for exchange students
The following process applies to exchange students nominated by a Corvinus partner university.
- Send your document. Send your home university’s accommodation letter to your Corvinus programme coordinator (CEMS, Erasmus, Study Abroad). The document must be in English and should list the support you receive at your home university.
- Corvinus reviews your request. The Disability Committee reviews the document and decides which accommodations Corvinus can provide during your stay.
- Receive your DAS. Your programme coordinator will send you a Documentation of Accessibility Support (DAS) listing the accommodations approved at Corvinus.
- Contact your instructors. Send the DAS to the instructors of the relevant courses within 15 days of receiving it and discuss how the approved accommodations can be provided in each course.
Freemover students: If you are not studying at Corvinus through a partner-university agreement, you must follow the same process as degree students after enrolment.
Individual consultation
Individual consultations are available to bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral students. You can meet the Disability Support Coordinator either in person or online via Microsoft Teams.
During the confidential consultation, we can help you:
- understand what accessibility support may be available to you
- identify the appropriate application process and required supporting documents
- discuss difficulties that affect your studies
- understand how approved accommodations can be used in practice
- identify other relevant University services
You do not need to know exactly what kind of support you may need before contacting us. The consultation is not a medical assessment and does not automatically result in the approval of accommodations.
To request a consultation, use the Book an Individual Consultation button at the top of the page.
