Hi!
I'm trying to understand how one's apply to a master programme in the aforementioned university.
I've reviewed deadlines and requirements, and I think I'm able to make it. However, I'm confused about the following statement, in the paperwork:
Les copies certifiées conformes des relevés de notes des trois dernières années d’études secondaires (y compris ceux de l’année en cours) en langue originale (+ traduction - voir point 12).
Meaning that I have to retrieve the grades of my last 3 years of high school?
What I don't get is: if I have a bachelors degree, recognised by the University since is also a public university, why do they need this? I don't think that my high school has these grades nevertheless, I graduated long time ago!
Any advice on how to surpass this, much much appreciated!
Oh the required documentation is in here:

Nobody answered me...in case anyone finds this information useful.
I was able to send the application, however I haven't received any response, after more than two months.
Not even a rejection letter.
I've called and phone lines seem unplugged. I've sent mails asking for information. There's nobody there.
I found this very frustrating. It's totally a non-swiss way to do it. I'm giving up for this chance to study there, even though I think I have all the requirements needed.
Just wanted to blow off some steam, although I know no one would read this.
Hi!
I had the similar situation last year. But the problem was solved because my high school diploma (I'm from Mongolia) had all my grades written on it. But I had to wait for the reply for a few months. And they didn't answer my emails or calls. It was frustrating. Even after coming to Geneva, the process with the administration was a nightmare (it still is actually). Anyhow, I managed to get into the graduate program but the problems did not end there.
Coming to Switzerland to study was like a dream but in reality it's not.
I want to know what happened with you. I hope you found something better
For anyone still looking at this thread, I want to say that I applied in the Masters in Physics from UNIGE. The deadline was at 30th of April, now it's 12th of August and I still don't have an answer. This is very non-swiss, I still do not have an answer which means I can not rent a room yet and classes start in one month. Wish me luck finding a room in Geneva just in a few weeks.
I am sorry for your challenges. Many administrative tasks continue to be deferred due to the Covid situation. The University is not even certain if face-to-face lectures will be held this fall.
Geneva is the hot-spot for infections in Switzerland with a large proportion being University age.
Hopefully you will have more information soon.
