Intake procedures
Do you apply for a language course requiring an intake or do you need advice on the course level or type? You can use the following options to proof your current level:
- A recent certificate or document that states your level;
- A statement of enrolment in a current course;
- The outcome of a recent intake at our Language Centre.
We advise you to do an intake before the start of the course:
