3. English Language Placement
Applicants who meet the minimum requirements listed above for admission will be admitted to AUPP undergraduate programs. Applicants who do not meet the English proficiency requirements will complete an English language assessment administered by the University. Based on the results of these assessments, admitted students will either enter the undergraduate programs, or they may be required to complete a semester or more of intensive preparatory English classes prior to progressing to the undergraduate program. The preparatory English program is skills-based, and students in the program will be assessed at the end of their first semester to determine whether or not they have mastered the program outcomes to be able to proceed to the undergraduate program, or will need additional English preparation. It is recommended that applicants who have not previously taken a TOEFL or IELTS test should take the AUPP English language assessment as the cost is significantly lower than the TOEFL or IELTS.A non-refundable USD 15 fee for the English language assessment is paid before the testing.

AUPP recognizes academic work completed under the International Baccalaureate (IB) program. Students who complete the requirements for an IB Diploma with scores of 5 or higher on standard and higher level examinations may be awarded up to a maximum of 30 units collegiate credit at AUPP.
Students who have not completed the requirements for an IB Diploma may only receive credit for scores of 5 or higher on higher level examinations. Credits are only awarded on the receipt of the original official International Baccalaureate transcript, and with the approval of the VPASA.
Once academic credit has been awarded, the VPASA, in consultation with the student and an academic advisor or the Admissions Office, will determine the equivalent AUPP courses to be credited.
