Dear Students,
Students who have studied in the 1st and 2nd modules of the 2025-2026 Academic Year at Üsküdar University Foreign Languages Coordinatorship English Preparatory School B1 (Paddington) or B2 (Islington) levels and whose average grade is 85 or above are NOT required to participate in the Proficiency Exam.
Our students in this situation can take action accordingly in the 2nd semester.
a) They can start their departments as irregular students.
b) They can attend Preparatory School at C level. Our students who successfully complete the C level without any absences and by completing their projects will be given a C level Certificate. Students who start at C level and do not continue their Preparatory Education are B2 level graduates. They do not need to take the Proficiency Exam again.
c) They can freeze their education by contacting our finance department.
By clicking on the link below, you can get information about whether you passed the Preparatory School with your average success rate or whether you need to take the Proficiency Exam.
Good luck
Sevgili Öğrenciler,
Üsküdar Üniversitesi Yabancı Diller Koordinatörlüğü İngilizce Hazırlık Okulu B1 (Paddington) ya da B2 (Islington) seviyelerinde 2025-2026 Akademik yılı 1. ve 2. modüllerinde öğrenim görmüş ve not ortalaması 85 ve üzeri olan öğrencilerimizin Proficiency Sınavı’na katılım zorunluluğu yoktur.
Bu durumdaki öğrencilerimiz 2. dönemde
- irregular öğrenci olarak bölümlerine başlayabilirler
- C seviyesinde hazırlık okuluna devam edebilirler. C seviyesini devamsızlık yapmayarak ve projelerini tamamlayarak başarılı olan öğrencilerimiz C seviyesi sertifikası almaya hak kazanırlar. C seviyesine başlayıp devam etmeyen öğrenciler B2 seviyesiyle hazırlık eğitimlerini tamamlamış olurlar. Tekrar Proficiency Sınavı’na girmeleri gerekmemektedir.
- Eğitimlerini finans departmanımızla görüşerek dondurabilirler.
Aşağıdaki linke tıklayarak başarı ortalamasıyla hazırlık sınıfını geçtiğiniz ya da Proficiency Sınavı’na girmeniz gerektiği bilgisine ulaşabilirsiniz.
Başarılar diliyoruz
