At the end of the semester, the participants have the final exam to assess whether their Polish
competency meets the proficiency level required to enter a university program at SWPS University.
It is a two-part exam, including:
- A written grammar, vocabulary, reading, listening, and writing skills test
- An oral exam to assess speaking proficiency, where participants must be able to talk about a selected
topic or issue.

The examination panel for the oral exam consists of teachers other than those teaching the course.
The program closes with an official Graduation Ceremony.
