Switzerland: Recognition and Validation of Previous Studies

swissuniversities - Recommendations of recognition for foreign higher education qualifications

For work purposes swissuniversities (association of Swiss higher education institutions) can issue recommendations of recognition for holders of foreign higher education qualifications which give access to non-regulated professions. This recommendation of recognition is a comparative grading which is not legally binding. The recognition of diplomas that give access to a non-regulated profession does not exist in Switzerland.


Swissuniversities does not issue recommendations for admission purposes.
