The English entrance exam will determine which level of English complementary class each student would have to attend, together with their official course. From the lowest to the highest level, the English entrance exam score is divided as follows:
- Academic English 1 ( TOEFL iBT ≥ 56 or IELTS ≥ 5.5 ) ***
- Intensive English 2 ( TOEFL iBT ≥ 35 or IELTS ≥ 5.0 )***
- Intensive English 1 ( TOEFL iBT < 35 or IELTS < 5.0 )***
- Intensive English 0 ( IELTS < 4.5 )***
*** Last update 08/08/2023
All students at the Intensive English 0 level will have to complete the IE0 program before beginning the Intensive English 1 course.
