EFRI was founded in 1961 as an economics faculty, before the University of Rijeka itself existed (the university was founded in 1973 and EFRI became one of its constituent faculties). It runs an EFMD-accredited, 3-year English-taught undergraduate programme in International Business for international students, alongside a matching graduate programme.

Accreditation
DEQAR lookup for this institution has not been run yet.
Registration with EQAR is voluntary. An institution’s absence from DEQAR does not by itself mean it is unaccredited — a “not yet checked” badge means exactly that, never a warning.

Student residence permits issued in Croatia
Eurostat migr_resedu ingestion for Croatia is not built yet.
No approval rate is published for any European country. Eurostat's migr_resedu dataset reports permits issued by citizenship, not applications refused — there is no denominator, so no approval or rejection percentage exists in the source data. When this section goes live it will show volume and trend for your nationality only.
for Non-EU rate for the University Undergraduate Programme in International Business (English-taught), 2026/27 academic year — €2,000/year for Croatian and other EU citizens. A separate €58.20 one-time enrollment/administrative fee also applies.
Older EFRI/University of Rijeka documents (a 2025/26 call for English-taught studies, and a March 2025 international-students guide) quote lower, outdated figures (€3,000/year and a flat €1,061.78/year respectively) — treat those as superseded, not as a live disagreement, since the current EFRI admissions and tuition pages consistently show €5,000/year for 2026/27. EFRI also caps non-EU enrollment at a small quota — confirm current seat availability with international@efri.hr before applying.

Unconfirmed — see note
Non-EU students may work or be self-employed up to 20 hours per week during studies, per the official EU Immigration Portal. The official EU Immigration Portal requires 'sufficient resources' without stating an amount. Third-party sources we found cite figures ranging from roughly €4,000 to €7,200 — we could not confirm a single authoritative figure from an official source, so none is shown as fact. Confirm the current amount with Croatian authorities (MUP) before applying.
