Compétences en statistiques

Lors de l'admission, les candidat-e-s avec licence étrangère en psychologie doivent démontrer que leurs connaissances en statistiques sont suffisantes pour intégrer directement notre master. Ces acquis doivent correspondre en termes de contenu et de volume de travail aux modules de statistiques présents dans notre bachelor en psychologie (au total 18 crédits ECTS). Pour que ces acquis en statistiques puissent être évalués, les documents suivants doivent être fournis lors de l'inscription en ligne ou lors de l’envoi du dossier d’admission au format papier :

Relevé de notes avec mise en évidence des cours de statistiques acquis
Descriptif détaillé pour chaque cours de statistiques acquis.

En cas de connaissances insuffisantes, une remise à niveau sera exigée.

Des prestations d'études effectuées au sein d'autres institutions universitaires ou hautes écoles peuvent être comptabilisées dans la mesure où elles sont jugées équivalentes en termes de contenu, de volume, de niveau d'études, ne remontent pas à plus de cinq ans, ont été validées par une note suffisante et n'ont pas déjà été utilisées pour l'obtention d'un diplôme (interdiction de la double utilisation). Au moins deux tiers des crédits ECTS nécessaires pour le Bachelor ou le Master doivent être obtenus au sein d’une filière d’étude d’UniDistance Suisse. La demande d’équivalence dûment documentée doit être présentée lors de l’inscription via le formulaire d’inscription.

At the end of the form, you will find a document entitled «Confirmation of Registration». This will also be sent to you by e-mail. It must be printed out, dated, signed and sent, together with your documents, before the registration deadline. No application will be processed without these documents.

Frequently asked questions about registration and admission at UniDistance Suisse

Foreign students

What level of language proficiency is required to study at UniDistance Suisse?

For our French-language courses, applicants must demonstrate excellent command of the French language, both spoken and written, corresponding to level C1 and validated by a language certificate recognised by the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR).

Candidates whose mother tongue is not French but who have completed secondary or post-secondary education in French, as attested by a diploma, are exempt from this requirement. The same exemption applies to individuals who have completed at least one year of university education in French, as attested by a transcript of records.

For programmes taught in English, knowledge of this language is not assessed at the time of admission. We recommend a C1 level.

In addition, it is recommended that you have a basic knowledge of the following languages, depending on the programme (understanding of texts in this language):

Law: level B2 in German
Psychology and Bachelor's degree in Economics: level B2 in English
History: level B2 in German and English

As an international student, do I need a residence permit to study at UniDistance Suisse?

You do not need such a permit because you are not required to be a resident in Switzerland to study with us. Your nationality plays no role in your admission. Only the formal criteria outlined in the Admission Regulations are considered.

I have a foreign certificate of education. Does that entitle me to enroll at UniDistance Suisse?

Holders of foreign diplomas may be admitted provided that the diploma obtained is recognised as equivalent to those set out in article 8, paragraph 1 of the Admission Regulations. You will find our admission requirements by country of origin of the diploma in Annex B of these regulations.

UniDistance Suisse offers two academic starts per year for its Bachelor's and Master's degrees. You can register until May 31st for the autumn semester and until November 30th for the spring semester (the date of the postmark on the registration document shall be taken as proof).

I have lost the original copy of the diploma you require for my admission. What should I do?

In order to process your registration request, we require the original copy of your diploma. If you no longer have it in your possession, we will need a duplicate, which you can obtain directly from the institution that issued it.

How do I enroll?

First, make sure you meet the admission requirements for the programme you wish to pursue. Then, fill out the online registration form. You'll need to upload your previous diplomas and various other documents. If everything is in order, you will be provisionally admitted and receive a confirmation of enrollment along with an invoice. Once the invoice is settled, you are officially admitted and can start your studies.

How do I register?

You can use our online registration form to provide us with the necessary information and submit documents (e.g. for a request for equivalence).

Once the online registration has been finalised, you will have to send by post the dated and signed confirmation of registration as well as the certified copy or copies or the originals of your access degrees.

UniDistance Suisse will only process applications once they have been received by post.
