Decision on the assessment of tuition fees
If you have been assessed a tuition fee, you can appeal against it under Section 68(5) of the Higher Education Act.
Appeal period
The appeal period starts the day after the day of delivery of the decision and lasts 15 days. If the 15th day falls on a weekend or public holiday, the appeal can still be filed on the first working day following, either at the post office or in person at the Counselling Centre. For students and persons with interrupted studies, the decision is sent via the UWB Portal and the deadline for filing an appeal is also indicated there.
The delay may be excused for serious reasons. The request for condonation of the delay must be substantiated and must be served together with the appeal.
How to appeal step by step
- Log in to the Portal; in the “My Studies” section, open the “View File” tab and locate the decision you wish to appeal,
- upload the files that support your claim; after uploading the documents, click the “Save and Submit” button,
- in Article 72 of the Statute of the UWB, you will find the relevant reasons for appealling and further information,
- if you are no longer a student of the University of West Bohemia, you can submit your appeal via the data box, by mail, or in person.
Based on the stated and documented reasons, the fee may be reduced depending on its severity.
If you need advice before submitting an appeal, reach for us. We will be happy to advise you.
Decision on the appeal
The UWB has 30 days to process the appeal. In the second-stage decision, the UWB only comments on the reasons stated and documented in the application. The decision is final on the date of its delivery and cannot be appealed. The methods of service are the same as for the first instance decision. Students and persons with interrupted studies are served via the UWB Portal, and persons with completed studies by post or by post.
Tip: The second instance decision does not include payment details for the fee. These are in the first instance decision, so please save it.
