HOW TO REGISTER

ENTRANCE TEST

In order to be able to offer you lessons that are tailored to your needs from the outset, we suggest that you take a placement test to help us understand not only your level of knowledge, but also your level of comprehension/familiarity with the language.

The entrance test is divided into two parts:

(a) First written component

The written test allows for verification of:

  • the level of written comprehension (which may not correspond to the level of knowledge of grammatical structures, or to the competency in writing);
  • The level of knowledge of grammatical structures;
  • The skill level in written production.

(b) Second oral component

The interview, which takes place after the written test, aims at a global evaluation of the candidate.

Determined throughout the interview is:

  • the data resulting from the written test;
  • an evaluation of oral comprehension and production;
  • a verification of the applicant’s current understanding of language skills;
  • a determination of the candidate’s objectives.
  • The application form must be fully filled out and returned at least 1 month before the course starts; 2 months in advance for students inhabiting in overseas and who need a student visa to enter Switzerland; Any time if the foreign student is already present in Switzerland and whom the law permits (in specific cases) to request his staying permit in our country or to convert his current permit to study permit “L” (in case of delay, please contact the School).
  • Payment in advance is requested for the whole period of studies. A copy of the effected payment of the invoiced amount must be handed in to the school or transmitted by electronic means.
  • The student receives a confirmation of the enrolment or, in the case of a requested student visa, the necessary documents when the payment has been made.
  • There will be no refund for absences due to personal reasons such as holiday, illness or the impossibility to reach the school, as for instance bad weather or other.
