got the first reply from one of the bachelor programs I applied to yesterday, is this a normal minimum score for an IT program from the joint application? Seems like 14/80 is absolutely low. Am I missing something?

UAS is more like a mix between community college and vocational school, they are intended to accept almost every applicant.
They just want the money. Schools are struggling with getting students these days as less non eu students are applying than before.
that is low yes, but the programs have a fixed number of students they can take and the lowest score depends on the amount of accepted applicants and the popularity of the program. they can widely vary even between very similar programs in different UAS locations.
some programs only have like 10-20 spots and have hundreds or even thousands of applicants, so the lowest score will be the one that got the last spot. some can accept most of their applicants, which lowers the minimum score significantly.
Is the program in English (= easily accessable for international students)?
More international students means more sweet sweet tuition money. Make of that what you will.
