You likely don't need this permit

EU citizens don't need a residence permit to study in Slovakia. They can stay 3 months with a valid ID card or passport. For a longer stay, they register their residence with the Foreign Police within 30 days after those 3 months end. Registration is free.

Every report is personal: a document check is built from one person's own answers and documents, so two people on this route can get different results. Run your own check rather than relying on a friend's or relative's; each person is responsible for their own application.
