Controversyedit
The State University of Tetova was at the center of a forged diploma scandal throughout the 2000s and early 2010s.[3] In neighboring Albania, diploma mills were selling forged diplomas on the street for between 500 and 800 euros, with diplomas coming from the State University of Tetovo a popular choice, given that the university was outside the remit of Albania's official institutions. The State University of Tetova rector claimed that former students who had not completed their studies were purchasing these forged diplomas, with forged diplomas even being sold in Kosovo and Montenegro.[4] In 2021, it was revealed that at least seven professors from the medical faculty of the State University of Tetova had engaged in academic dishonesty, after it was revealed parts of their scientific works had been plagiarized and copied.[5]
