FAQ

From Kazakhstan to Tallinn — frequently asked questions

EBS assesses each applicant’s secondary education documents against the requirements of the chosen programme. Ask admissions which certificate, transcripts, English-language evidence, translations or document authentication are required. Do not assume that Kazakhstan’s UNT score is automatically an EBS admission requirement.

Unless specifically confirmed: flights from Kazakhstan, meals, personal spending, health insurance, government immigration fees, accommodation deposits and optional third-party services are not included. Prices cover one academic year, not the entire bachelor’s degree.

Kazakhstani citizens should check the current Estonian entry and long-term residence rules for their passport and intended duration of stay. Full bachelor’s studies require an appropriate long-term immigration basis, commonly a residence permit for studies. EBS can direct applicants to official guidance; immigration decisions are made by the competent authorities.

The Eedu Campus accommodation includes one private, single-occupancy room for 12 months, with move-in-ready furnishings, Wi-Fi, utilities and gym access. Detailed facilities and inventory will be confirmed before booking.

Yes. Families can ask about academic pathways and practical preparation. The Study + Live + Settle package also includes an optional family consultation before departure.

Employment and post-study residence options depend on immigration status and applicable rules. Career paths described on this page are examples, not employment guarantees. Ask EBS for current guidance and check the Estonian Police and Border Guard Board for immigration conditions.
