Licensing to the branches of University Legal Entities (ULE)
Law 5094/2024 provides for the establishment and operation in Greece of branches of foreign state or non-state higher education institutions in the form of University Legal Entities (ULEs). These institutions must award Higher Education titles to their graduates, operate as branches of their parent Institution, which is already recognized in member-states of the European Union or third countries, and will be licensed according to a specific process of review and evaluation conducted by the competent bodies of Greece, including the HAHE.
To receive the license, the parent Institution needs to apply to the Ministry of Education and submit the file with the necessary supporting documents. The part of the application file concerning primarily the academic operation of the ULE is forwarded to the HAHE, which conducts the review and evaluation, as required by Law.
For more information on the licensing process of University Legal Entities (ULEs), please refer to the relevant documents.
