General Requirements

English

Students interested pursuing into a programme that taught in English must demonstrate their proficiency in
the English language through one of the following:

Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL)

Test administered by the International English Language Testing Services (IELTS)
IIUM English Placement Test (EPT)

Students who have been offered admission but are unable to fulfill English requirement before the
semester of enrolment have two years to do so. Should they fail to fulfill the requirement within that period,
the offer of admission will be withdrawn.

For any of the bilingual programmes, students may enroll in a provisional admission that would allow them
to register concurrently for English and the programme's course.

Students in programmes taught in Arabic may take up English proficiency courses concurrently with their
departmental courses, provided that they have been exempted from Arabic after sitting for the Arabic
Placement Test (APT). These students must also attain a minimum score of 550 in TOEFL or 6.0 in IELTS
or EPT before they register for research projects or Comprehensive Examinations.

Arabic

Students seeking entry into programmes taught in Arabic must pass the IIUM-administered Arabic
Placement Test (APT). Those who fail in this test have one academic year during which they can try again.
The offer of admission will be withdrawn if they cannot fulfill the requirement within a year.
