Admissions

  • Admission Process

    The admission process at the EPIC Institute of Technology:

    • We offer students four programs: Complex Logic, Real-Time Backend, Real-Time Frontend and Time Series Analysis. The main recruitment for all four specialties will be held at the same entrance exam. You can find out how the entrance exam works in the Entrance Exam section.
    • You can also get into any program without sitting the entrance exams. This option is described in the Admission on Resume section.
    • Students will be passed through an additional screening based on the results of the entrance exam and the collected resumes. If according to the results of the recruitment, you do not pass to the program you initially applied for, you will be offered options for admission to other programs.
    • Register for the upcoming exams to participate in the admission process. Choose one of the programs and fill out the form. Please make sure you are applying for the desired major.
    • We will send you a registration confirmation letter to the provided email address after registering for the entrance exam.

  • Who is Eligible

    The only restriction for getting into EPIC Institute of Technology is age. You must be older than 18 years old to become a student.

    Although there are almost no restrictions, we expect students to have a basic knowledge of arithmetic, discrete math, probability theory, mathematical statistics, algorithms, and data structures.

    In the Entrance Exam section, you can find a training set of problems for the entrance exam. We assume, that our future students have sufficient knowledge to complete them in full or at least partially.

  • Entrance Exam

    The entrance exam will be conducted as follows:

    • Three entrance exams, exam dates will be announced soon.
    • All exams have the same priority and you need to participate in one of them. We have decided to offer four slots so that you could find a day that fits you the best (weekday or weekend).
    • All exams will be conducted on different sets of tasks.
    • Each entrance exam will last 4 hours. The number of tasks in each of the exams can be from 8 to 12. During the proposed time, you need to solve as many of the proposed tasks as you can, strictly following the instructions in the conditions. The exact time of each exam will be announced later.

    Document with training tasks. Also, as an exercise, you can solve problems that were in the exams a year ago. They can be found at the following link.

  • Admission on Resume

    You can get enrolled in any of the programs by submitting your resume and skipping sitting the exam. This option is rather exceptional, but under certain conditions, a resume may be sufficient for a student to pass. We accept your CVs until the end of the entrance exams, but if someone fails the exam or did not participate, this person can send us a CV any time later.

    We expect resumes to include the following information:

    • Basic information. Include your full name, contact details, and geographic location.
    • Education. List all schools/universities/colleges where you studied/graduated from.
    • Work experience. Provide your employment history, including the companies and projects where you worked (you can mention your major achievements).
    • Participation in programming competitions, internships, and conferences.
    • Other accomplishments and information you would like to share with us.

    Follow this link to send us your CV.

    We emphasize, that admission by examination is a priority method of admission.
