English language proficiency

For Both Bachelor and Master Courses the entry requirement is an Academic IELTS of 6.0 or an equivalent in another language test (TOEFL 550, etc.).

If you want to be considered for Art and Technology, either one of the following categories will apply:

1. Your previous education consists in having successfully completed three or four years of studies at bachelor level at a university the School of Applied Art and Technology has made an agreement with. Students of designated courses can be admitted. On the basis of students´ previous education the school decides on which final year profiles a student can choose from. During the Final Year orientation phase, after consultation with the Final Year coordinator, you may choose other profiles in accordance with your portfolio.
   Subsequently, in consultation with the final project coach, a plan will be made for the contents of the profile chosen.
2. Your previous education consists in having successfully completed three or four years of studies at bachelor level at a university the School of Applied Art and Technology has not made an agreement with. In each individual case a student´s previous education will be looked at to establish if there is a sufficient similarity with the first 3 years of the Art and Technology course. Consequently you need to submit a CV, testimonials, a letter of motivation and an interactive portfolio (website, CD rom or DVD) and to take part in an assessment (by telephone or by means of webcam) to establish your communicative skills.
