Results of the English Test 19 July 2019
Candidates who failed the test are expected to compete for the programs of studies in Romanian. The reason for this selection is the interest of the future students to avoid the trouble to study in a foreign language which they do not manage well enough.
Applications 15-20 July 2019 between 9 am – 4 pm at the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering Office in Polizu Campus Building A ground floor
Admission contest 22 an 23 July 2019 from 10 am – candidates for studies in English will take a language proficiency test on 19 July at the Faculty of Engineering in Foreign Languages.
Number of Places 2019
In 2019 the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering offers 220 places without tuition fee at undergraduate level. Additionally, 40 places with tuition fee are on offer. These are distributed as follows:
IA – 180 places w/o fee for studies in Romanian, programs of studies CA, SP, EIA, IMA, DA, and additionally 5 places reserved for graduates of rural high schools.
IA.x – 28 places with fee for studies in Romanian, programs of studies CA, SP, EIA, IMA, DA
IAen – 40 places w/o fee for studies in English, program of studies NA, and additionally 1 place reserved for graduates of rural high schools.
IAen.x – 12 places with fee for studies in English, program of studies NA
We recommend to the candidates to opt for ”with fee” too, even if they do not want to pay a tuition fee. Why? Because if the candidates do not succeed initially to catch one of the 220 tuition free places, if the ”with tax” option is not selected, they will be irreversibly redistributed to other faculties. If the option is there, they will be kept in the list of our faculty. From our past experience, 5 to 10% of the candidates initially admitted withdraw and the ”with tax” list automatically promotes to the ”tax free” zone, within the number of these freed places.
The graduates of rural high schools compete separately from the rest of the candidates. A minimal grade of 5.00 secures a place without tax for them, out of the 220, on the reserved places listed above.
Also, Romanians from everywhere benefit from a number of additional places without tax, and without tax and a scholarship, respectively. Please, see the International Students page for the methodology.

When?
Pre-registration (2 April – 20 July 2019)
At this stage, candidates pre-register online – they register their personal details and their options. Thus, registration of candidates at the faculty secretariats will take less time, because the data will only be verified on the basis of the original documents.
Registration (15 – 20 July 2019)
At this stage the candidates have to personally presented with the necessary documents at the secretariats of the faculties they wish to register, between the hours 0900-1600. Candidates who opt for studies in English should register no later than 18 July, since the language proficiency test will take place on 19 July.
Do I have to sit exams?
YES!
Being a top faculty, FAE organizes admission based on an exam, but this does not have to scare you away. The purpose of the admission exam is not to “drop” the candidates but to make sure those admitted will meet the requirements of the domain.
The admission contest consists of two written tests, as follows:
- Algebra and Mathematical Analysis (Monday, July 22, 2019, 10 am, duration 2 hours)
- Physics (Tuesday, July 23, 2019, 10 am, duration 2 hours)
Results will be announced on Wednesday 24 July 2019.
The grading algorithm is quite simple: the overall average is formed with 20% of the BAC average and 80% of the average of the written tests (provided that it is over 5.00!). All you have to do is make sure you’re in the top 220!
On 19 July 2019, 9 am, at the Faculty of Engineering Studies in Foreign Languages (FILS), the candidates who choose Air Navigation will take an English language proficiency test, or submit an English language certificate Level B2 (advanced) to be used as an equivalent. The test ends with a selective result like Passed / Failed. Candidates should choose IA option after IAen in their registration, in order to secure the right to study in Romanian language in case of failure of the English test.
From 16 March 2019, candidates benefit from free courses delivered by UPB professors to prepare the admission test.

About the Number of Places
In 2018 the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering offers 220 places without tuition fee at undergraduate level. Out of these, one is reserved to the candidates of Roma ethnicity. Additionally, 40 places with tuition fee are on offer. We recommend to the candidates to opt for ”with fee” too, even if they do not want to pay a tuition fee. Why? Because if the candidates do not succeed initially to catch one of the 219+1 tuition free places, if the ”with tax” option is not selected, they will be irreversibly redistributed to other faculties. If the option is there, they will be kept in the list of our faculty. From our past experience, 10 to 15% of the candidates initially admitted withdraw and the ”with tax” list automatically promotes to the ”tax free” zone, within the number of these freed places.
Extra form the 220 tax free places, as a novelty in 2018, the graduates of rural high schools compete separately from the rest of the candidates. For them, a minimal grade of 5.00 is enough to get an additional place, without tax.
Also, Romanians from everywhere benefit from a number of additional places without tax, and without tax and a scholarship, respectively. Please, see the International Students page for the methodology.
