Language Skills (exam, test)
The Danish institutions of higher education normally accept the following language exam types: IELTS, TOEFL, Cambridge and Oxford Online Placement Test (OOPT). The University College of Northern Denmark accepts all exam types that are compatible with the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), such as EUROexam or TELC.
Applicants with one of the above mentioned exams on minimum of B2 (or C) level may complete their application by sending the application documents to the relevant places. Applicants without accepted language exam must take an OOPT.
In order to participate on the OOPT, the applicants have to be registered in SCEDA’s online system and the deposit must be paid prior to the test.
