Is it necessary to include a language exam certificate in my application package?

No. The entrance exam board evaluates the English language skills of applicants in the frame of the entrance exam procedure.

What is the Neptun system and how do I use it?

Neptun is the intranet system of the University. Basically all the administrative tasks you have as a Student are to be completed in Neptun. More specifically, you use it to

-    register for a semester

-    register for courses

-    register for exams

-    complete payments (e.g. fees to take particular courses, fees to take extra exams, paying tuition fee in HUF, etc).

 The way to use Neptun goes as follows. You enter the system at https://neptun3r.web.uni-corvinus.hu/hallgatoi_1/login.aspx. First change the language (“nyelv” in Hungarian) to English, then type in your identifier and your password. Your identifier is your Neptun code. This is a code you get from your program coordinator at the very start of your studies at CUB. Your password is the date of your birth (in case you were born February 18, 1984; then your password is 19840218).

Which account do I have to transfer the tuition fee to?

(1) In case you are transferring the tuition fee in a currency other than Hungarian Forint, please send it to the following account:

Name of the bank: Magyar Államkincstár Rt., 71 Váci út, 1139 Budapest, Hungary
Account number: 10032000-00282857-00000000
Name of the account holder: Corvinus University of Budapest, Faculty of Economics
Address: 8 Fővám tér, 1093 Budapest, Hungary
Swift code: MANE.HUHB
IBAN (International Banking Account Number): HU74 10032000-00282857-00000000
Name of transfer: "FEC-CUB-321005"

(2) In case you are transferring the tuition fee in Hungarian Forint, please send it to the following account:

Name of the account: BCE Student Account
Account number: 11709002-20604046
Bank: OTP Bank
Name of transfer: NK- X Y

X= your Neptun code
Y= your name

It usually takes 3-5 workdays until the transferred amount gets to the BCE Student Account.
Please note that in case you are using the BCE Student Account, the transfer is only completed once certain administrative tasks are done in Neptun too. Once the amount arrives in the BCE Student Account, it is available in Neptun under “Finances”/”Payments” as well. Under “Finances”/”Payments” you see the list of your completed and active payments. Once the transferred amount appears in “Finances”/”Payments,” the one last step to do is to click on “pay in” next to the name of the fee you wish to complete. As a last step, follow the instructions that come up until the system says “payment is completed.”

How do I complete the payment of fees other than the tuition fee?

All the fees other than the tuition fee are to be transferred to the BCE Student Account following the steps described in Q6/(2).
