Higher education includes university and university college. This is usually based on a three-year exam from upper secondary school. Students that attend vocational education and training can achieve qualifications for submission to universities and university colleges (university and college admissions certification) by attending supplementary studies qualifying for higher education (about 2 years). You can also apply for university or university college admission based on total qualifications.
