Please note that for tracks with Goodman School of Business, Canada only non-native English-speaking applicants who have completed at least 3 years of their bachelor studies in an English-speaking country are exempt from doing a language test.

For all other tracks, applicants are exempt from doing one of the above stated English language tests if they have completed their entire studies in English or completed at least 50% of their bachelor programme in an English-speaking country. Proof must be provided.

Due to the current COVID-19 crisis, many language testing locations are currently closed until further notice. However, we have learned that TOEFL is offering a Home Edition test which could be an acceptable option for your application. Please visit their website for additional information: https://www.ets.org/s/cv/toefl/at-home/

Please kindly note that your language certificates can be handed in later (if not yet available). In this case, your acceptance to the programme is conditional on the fulfillment of our minimum requirements.

Please note that students applying to ESB need to submit all documents (incl. language certificates) except their final degree transcript by the closing dates of 15^th June/15^th July. For the other schools, students have  until end of July to submit their language certificates.
