🕯️ Honest context (factual, neutral — evenhandedness doctrine): The University of Priština was founded in 1970. Following the 1999 Kosovo war, the Serbian-administered university RELOCATED and is 'temporarily seated' in Kosovska Mitrovica (in the Serb-majority north of Kosovo); it operates within the SERBIAN education system and accreditation framework. A SEPARATE, distinct institution — the (Albanian-language) University of Prishtina — operates in Pristina within Kosovo's education system and is catalogued by AlmiStudy under Kosovo. AlmiStudy lists BOTH factually and neutrally; the catalogue/ISO placement is a data-consistency matter and is NOT a political statement about Kosovo's status, on which AlmiStudy takes no side. ⚠️ Added by curator (for completeness and evenhandedness).

We list institutions whose accreditation we have verified against a recognized national or international accrediting body. Listing does not vouch for any specific program's recognition by destination-country regulators, individual admissions outcomes, or post-graduation credential transferability.

When you click through to a university's website, you are interacting with that institution's admissions process under their terms. Our responsibility ends at pointing you to a verified-accreditation institution.
