English Requirements

Non-native English speakers are required to submit a recent score from an internationally-recognized English examination. These may include, but are not limited to, the following examinations: IELTS, TOEFL iBT, Versant (can be taken at Prague City University).

The required score differs from programme to programme. Please check individual programme pages for the specific requirement or please feel free to contact us for further details.

If you have recently taken a different internationally-recognized English language exam — for example Czech State Language Exams, Cambridge First Certificate, Cambridge Advanced English and so on — those results can also be used to assess your current language ability.

Similarly, if you have studied the IB Diploma, or taken Cambridge iGCSEs or A-Levels for example, you may be exempt from submitting a further English examination result.

If you have questions about your English level or whether you need to sit an examination please contact our Admissions advisers at admissions@praguecityuniversity.cz or call (+420) 222 101 020.
