Foreigners and stateless people are eligible for student transfer system. A joint project of the Ministry of Education and State Examination Center, transfer.edu.az portal aims to facilitate and ensure transparency of student transfer. Transfer.edu.az gives students the opportunity to choose an educational institution they want to transfer to. 
Student transfer takes place during winter and summer vacations by consent of the Ministry of Education. To be eligible for transfer, students’ scores at the entrance exam (if the international students do not participate, this approach does not implement them) held by the State Examination Center must not be lower than the required score for the discipline at the university they intend to transfer to. Students’ disciplines at their current university and the university they want to transfer to must be in the same specialization group.
Students at non-accredited foreign higher education institutions are not allowed to apply for a transfer. Students will be at an advantage if their higher education institution is amongst the world`s top-ranking universities.
