The Ministry of Education opened the password creation stage for General and Vocational Lyceum candidates submitting higher education preference forms and parallel preference forms for public SAEK places. Candidates must contact their Lyceum during the announced window.
What Changed?
The password stage for the 2026 computerized preference process was activated for higher education and public SAEK applications.
Old System vs New System
Before the notice, candidates did not yet have the official 2026 window to create the password needed for the M.D. and P.M.D. submission systems.
Eligible candidates can create their personal password at their Lyceum from 17 June to 30 June 2026, with emergency service available in July when Lyceums operate.
Who Is Affected?
Student Impact
Students and graduates gain the required access credential for submitting higher education and public SAEK preference forms.
Parent / Family Impact
Families must help candidates track the password window and later submission deadlines so that application access is not missed.
School / Institution Impact
Lyceums must serve candidates during the password creation period and support access for eligible groups.
Teacher / Staff Impact
School staff involved in candidate support may need to guide students and graduates through the password creation process.
